Interested in sustainability, but don't have the time or resources to attend a trade show? Then sit back, turn on your computer, and check out the Sustainable Construction Expo, a virtual trade show from the comfort of your own office. Presented by BASF, the Expo will highlight product and educational offerings from BASF Construction North America, the world's leading chemical company, and a selection of its industry allies and experts.

Produced to showcase the role BASF's chemicals have in helping to create durable, energy-efficient, and cost-effective buildings, residences, and infrastructure, the Expo provides a forum for sharing information among leading industry experts, product suppliers, design professionals, specifiers, engineers, contractors, building owners, and facility managers.

The Expo includes several exhibitors and speakers, focusing on topics from sustainable development, life cycle analysis, and net-zero-energy performance to wall systems, insulation, and roofing among other concepts and materials. Featured organizations include the Sustainable Building Industry Council, the National Building Museum, the Federal Alliance for Safe Homes, The U.S. Department of Energy's Building America, the Structural Insulated Panel Association, and the Urban Land Institute. Attendees will also find information about tools that measure and compare environmental impacts.

The online Expo makes the virtual trade show experience almost like the real thing with an Exhibit Hall, and Auditorium for speaker presentations, a Resource Center, and much more.
