Futurebuild Australia is the event for the industry shaping how Australia designs, builds and delivers its next generation of projects.
Join 15,000 design and construction professionals across three days at ICC Sydney - exploring thousands of innovative products and solutions, discovering what’s new in materials, technologies and systems, and meeting the people driving the industry forward.
Build better. Specify smarter.
“This expo was really one of the best I have attended. The quality of companies, materials and products was fantastic. I spoke to so many that were of interest to me as a builder. Well done - world class!” CARBON DEVELOPMENT
WELCOME
This event comes at a time when the building industry across NSW and Australia is busier than ever. We have strong population growth, a large pipeline of projects, and increasing pressure to deliver buildings that are safe, durable and fit for purpose.
In this environment, getting the fundamentals right really matters. Clear regulatory compliance, appropriate product selection, and robust design, certification and construction practices are essential to maintaining confidence for clients, occupants and the wider community.
Government has an important role in setting expectations and enforcing standards, but regulation alone isn’t enough. Good outcomes depend on the capability of the industry itself - on skilled professionals, reliable systems, and a shared commitment to quality at every stage of a project.
That’s why events like Futurebuild Australia are so valuable. They bring together the people who make real decisions every day - designers, engineers, builders, developers and suppliers. When the whole supply chain works together, projects are easier to deliver well, and problems are less likely to arise later.
As we continue to build at scale, the challenge is not just building more, but building better. That means designs that can be built properly, products that perform as expected, and clear responsibility from start to finish.
I encourage you to use this event to share ideas, learn from each other, and consider how we can keep lifting the standard of building across our industry.
James Sherrard NSW Building Commissioner
