Light+Building 2010 To Start In April New Layout For Electrical Engineering

The early signs for Light+Building 2010 are good: the Exhibition Centre is already almost fully booked.
From 11 to 16 April 2010 in Frankfurt am Main, at the world's largest innovations forum for architecture and integrated building services engineering, trade and professional visitors will be able to see the world's new products for lighting, electrical engineering and home and building automation over an exhibition area of 240,000 square metres.
Exhibitors will be presenting trends and pioneering solutions related, in particular, to energy efficiency, the central theme of Light+Building 2010.
The world's leading trade fair for architecture and technology will offer a comprehensive range of products and services for all relevant visitor groups: architects, engineers, planners, interior architects and designers as well as for the installation trades, wholesalers and retailers and for industry.
"Light+Building is the only trade fair in the world, which offers state of the art technology in a situation which combines lighting, electrical engineering and home and building automation" says
Dr. Michael Peters, Member of the Board of Management of Messe Frankfurt. "And it is on this inter-disciplinary concept, specifically, that the unique success of Light+Building has been based since its premiere in 2000."
With some 1,500 companies, Light+Building creates the world's largest stage for the lighting market.
Visitors to Frankfurt get to see the entire spectrum of lighting technology at one and the same time and in the same place – including technical lighting and lamps of all kinds and for all sorts of applications, designer lamps in widely varying styles – both modern and traditional – as well as a broad selection of technical components and accessories for the lighting market.
Technical lighting and lamps are represented in Halls 3, 4, 10.1 as well as in the Forum and the Festhalle.
Here visitors will find all the pioneering lighting technologies such as LED lighting for commercial, industrial and public buildings as well as for private homes.
Exterior lighting for public spaces is presented under the heading 'Urban
Lighting' in Hall 5.0 and technical, design-oriented luminaires are in Hall 1 and 5.1. Decorative lighting for commercial, public and domestic areas, with their wide variety of styles are now housed in Halls 5.1, 6.0, 6.1 and 10.1 and technical lighting components in Hall 4.
At Light+Building 2010, there is a new optimised layout for electrical engineering in Hall 8 and in the new Hall 11. With the inclusion of the new hall, the comprehensive range of products will be laid out for visitors in a clear and structured way – from cables and wiring, switches and electrical installation to information and communications equipment.
Energy-efficient system solutions in buildings and electronic installations, electrical installation and network technology as well as design-oriented electrical equipment constitute the central areas of interest, for which some 450 exhibitors will be presenting the whole spectrum of building-related technology in the field of electrical engineering.
For the electrical engineering sector, Light+Building, in combination with building automation, is the most important platform for intelligent building services engineering.
Some 150 exhibitors in Hall 9 will be presenting future-proof solutions for building automation, facility management and contracting work.
Because it integrates both lighting and electrical engineering, the field of home and building automation occupies a key position when it comes to modernisation related to energy use.
Building automation systems and innovative solutions for measurement, control and regulatory technology are crucial components of integrative systems engineering.
In addition to a comprehensive range of products, Light+Building will also provide lectures on the latest developments in home and building automation, within the framework of the Building Performance Congress.
There is considerable potential for energy savings in all three areas of Light+Building.
This potential is best exploited using system solutions which are fostered by the integrative concept of this leading world trade fair.
At Light+Building, visitors will find at a glance everything to do with green building technologies, (i.e. eco-friendly building services engineering) - not visionary ideas, but technologies and solutions with immediate applications.
One feature in particular sets apart future-proof products: they combine design with innovative technology; that is to say, they combine the latest developments in design with energy efficient solutions
ACS, Computer Systems in the Building Industry, from 14 to 16 April 2010 in the Congress Centre at Messe Frankfurt is an ideal complement to Light+Building.
As one of the most important platforms for information and communications technologies, it offers architects, planners and engineers a spectrum which ranges from software solutions and hardware, to services and specialist information for all those involved in the building industry.
The specialist trade fair, there is the ACS Forum, with lectures and seminars which focus on future-proof building procedures.
The notional sponsor of ACS is the Chamber of Architects and Town Planners in the State of Hesse.
Congress, trend forum and other attractions
Another feature that sets this leading world trade fair apart is an extensive specialist complementary programme, tailored to individual visitor groups.
One of the major items on the programme is the Building Performance Congress, which, in its dedicated events, examines in more detail the topics raised within the product groups.
Well-known experts from inside and outside Germany will give lectures on current developments in lighting, electrical engineering and home and building automation.
The trend forum, which will present the 2011/12 trends for the home in four domestic style-worlds, will be a draw for architects and interior architects, specialist wholesalers and retailers and designers.
Other attractions include competitions for architecture and technology and 'Meeting Place: The Future', where school and university students can get an overview of the sector and its innovations.
Luminale begins when the trade fair ends
A further highlight, in the literal sense of the word, is Luminale. This 'Biennale' of lighting culture is an event that begins in the City of
Frankfurt when Light+Building shuts its doors.
During its lifetime, Luminale has developed into an event which, with its lighting 'installations' has attracted worldwide attention.
Over the last ten years, more than 500 projects have been realised within the framework of Luminale in Frankfurt and the Rhine-Main region. And another 100 pioneering projects will be on show in Frankfurt in 2010.
Altogether more than 100,000 visitors from all over the world were out and about on the nights of Luminale in 2008.
Light+Building 2008 ended with a sensational record for the trade fair business in terms of visitor numbers. 167,000 visitors came to see for themselves the products offered by 2,173 manufacturers.
