Around 350 international delegates are also expected to attend, showing strong interest in Pakistan’s industrial potential.

Speaking on the occasion, Moazzam Rasheed said that international exhibitors will present modern products and technologies, which will help develop the local industry.

He added that the event will strengthen connections between the construction and chemical sectors and create new business opportunities. He further said that more than 300 local and international delegates will participate, leading to strong business networking and partnerships.

A key feature of the expo is that it will include four major sub-exhibitions: Pakistan Coating Show, PakChem Expo, Pakistan Polyurethane Expo, and PakLab Expo. These will cover coatings, paints, inks, petrochemicals, polyurethane products, and laboratory solutions.

The LCCI President said the event will not only focus on business but also on knowledge sharing. Conferences, seminars, workshops, and training sessions will be held with participation from experts, students, and young professionals.
