BalticBuild exhibition, famous earlier as Baltic Building Week and Batimat St.Petersburg, - is the second largest building&construction exhibition in Russia. The new title provides consistency with the other building exhibitions of the ITE Group in Moscow and CIS (MosBuild, KazBuild, BakuBuild etc.).

The event has attracted much praise in recent years: it was twice the winner of the "Best International Project of the Year" (2001, 2002) contest as "The Best St. Petersburg Exhibition with most effective foreign participation".

In 2005 the exhibition was granted the RUEF (Russian Union of Exhibitions and Fairs) and UFI logos, which are the signs of an exhibition high quality.

BalticBuild is the only exhibition in Russia to promote innovations within the field of building and construction. The 10th edition of the show was marked by a change in focus. Emphasis was placed firmly on the promotion of innovations amongst exhibitors. This new concept not only allows exhibitors to demonstrate recent developments within the field, monitor and analyse the market, but also encourages further development by stimulating companies to discover new creative solutions.

"This large forum has become a great tradition. We are aiming at making this specialized construction exhibition reflect the development of new technologies, facilitate the establishment and maintenance of the international cooperation and support the advance of the professional level of the construction field workers. The BalticBuild is the great mean to present the trends named."
