Industry leaders, makers and buyers gathered at the Expo Village for the Twin International Tradeshows, a major trade event that put the latest building, woodworking and metal technologies on show and gave local firms a clear way to find new tools and partners. The event offered busy halls filled with demonstrations of construction machinery, safety equipment, power tools, CNC routers, laser cutters and packing machines that can help craftsmen and factories raise quality and speed up work. Organisers from ASK Trade & Exhibitions and Futurex Trade & Events designed the fair so visitors could compare machines, learn about new materials and meet suppliers from nearby countries as well as local dealers. Interior Design Bangladesh was the knowledge partner, adding talks and design tips that showed how better plans and smarter materials can make buildings more efficient and kinder to the planet. A senior guest from the Housing and Building Research Institute welcomed the focus on sustainable, cost effective ideas and said such shows help the sector adopt methods that cut waste. Exhibitors displayed items like concrete block machines, aluminium window frames, insulating glass lines, HDPE fittings, wood panels, melamine paper and furniture tools that suit workshops and factories. Visitors could see full systems for window making, door production and pipe bending as well as software and digital tools that help manage quality and plan cuts so wood and metal are used with less loss. The wood expo, brought by BEST CNC Router, showed how modern routers and edge banders lift finish quality and speed, while the metal expo highlighted machines that bend, laser cut and shape parts that builders and makers need. Business visitors said the fair made it simple to trial equipment, compare offers and find after sale support, which helps smaller firms take on bigger jobs and win steady contracts. Organisers emphasised practical outcomes such as training, local service links and safer work practices, noting machines work best when local technicians learn to run and repair them. The event also aimed to help furniture makers modernise, move from small scale craft to organised production and offer better products that can reach export buyers. Participants praised the chance to meet peers, see live demos and discuss how to adopt new approaches without rising costs or damage to the environment. By bringing global suppliers close to local users, the tradeshows offered a simple path to raise skills, create jobs and build a more modern industry that serves both homes and larger construction projects. Organisers said they hope the connections, deals and training at the fair will grow into partnerships that boost local business and help builders deliver stronger, safer and cleaner products. This progress can help local communities thrive.
