OREANDA-NEWS. March 4, 2011. A few days remain until the opening of the leading construction and interiors exhibition in Uzbekistan, UzBuild, which will begin on 15 March.

It’s no secret that UzBuild has become an effective business space for representatives of the construction industry of various countries. This year, the Belgian National Stand will be among the exhibitors.

Belgium is one of Uzbekistan’s reliable partners in Western Europe. The relations between the two countries are developing in the political, trade, economic and humanitarian spheres. The entry of Belgian producers to Uzbekistan’s market will once again confirm the existing potential for the development of cooperation - in the construction industry, in particular.

Among the exhibitors of the national stand are: BUZON PEDESTAL INTERNATIONAL SA – a producer of polypropylene coatings for terraces; JKP SPRL – a developer of technologies for buildings, tunnels and roads; BEA SA – a manufacturer of automatic door opening systems, ACV International – a manufacturer of heating systems; and DONBAR, a manufacturer of decorative fireplaces and stoves.

Between Uzbekistan and Belgium there is a most favoured nation system in the economic sphere. Uzbekistan exports cotton, textiles, and products of inorganic chemistry to Belgium. From Belgium Uzbekistan imports mechanical equipment, pharmaceutical products, plastics and plastic products, rubber and caoutchouc. Since 1999, the Walloon Export and Foreign Investment Agency (AWEX) has had an office in Tashkent, which helped organise the Belgian National Stand at UzBuild 2011.

Belgium will become the third country to be presented at UzBuild 2011 with a national stand. Along with Belgium, UzBuild 2011 will feature the national stands of Germany and the State of Kuwait.

The official opening ceremony UzBuild 2011 will be held on 15 March. The exhibition will run until 18 March 18 at Uzexpocentre.

UzBuild 2011 is organised by the international exhibition company ITE Uzbekistan and its partners.
