Leading building trade fair in Italy

Italy's leading building trade fair, Saie, is being held this year for the 41st time in Bologna. There it will present the new products of more than 1 850 exhibitors (450 of them from abroad) to almost 170 000 trade visitors between 12 and 16 October 2005. This year the fair will also be making use of the new Halls 16 to 18, so that 220 000 m² will be available in total. The emphasis this year is on concrete, chimneys and drainage systems/water treatment, among other things. According to the organisers, the new products catalogue introduced last year will be even more comprehensive this time around.
