Of September 28 to October 1, 2026, Paris Expo Porte de Versailles will welcome the first edition of the Paris Builders Show. The show succeeds the Mondial du Bâtiment, but the evolution is not limited to a change of identity: more than a new name, the 2026 edition inaugurates a new formula with four combined events, a strong international opening and more than 500 conferences.

A unique place for an assumed international ambition

Indeed, and for the first time, BATIMAT, INTERCLIMA, IDÉOBAIN and RENODAYS will be united under a common banner. The objective is to offer a more transversal vision of the major changes in the sector, from decarbonization to renovation, including the digitalization of professions, new construction methods and even the evolution of uses. “Faced with profound changes in the sector and new global economic challenges, Paris Builders Show is now asserting itself as a unique place for meetings, convergences and exchanges, with a resolutely international dimension.“, summarizes Jean-Philippe Guillon, director of Paris Builders Show.

The international opening constitutes one of the main changes of this 2026 edition. The conferences will be offered in a bilingual version, specific courses reserved for foreign visitors and an International Club of more than 200 m2 will facilitate meetings between delegations, exhibitors and buyers.

Ahead of the show, the organizers will also launch the Builders Roadshow, a tour which will notably pass through Italy, Spain, Portugal, Canada, Belgium, Morocco and Tunisia in order to attract new visitors and enrich the content offered in Paris.

Finally, the Innovation Awards, which received nearly 300 applications during the previous edition, are enriched with two new categories: Solar protection and Electrical equipment. The innovations will be highlighted throughout the halls thanks to interactive terminals, while the trophies will be awarded at the opening of the show, on September 28.

Renodays becomes annual

Another major development: Renodays officially joins Paris Builders Show and becomes an annual event. Organized on September 28 and 29 in hall 7.1, the forum will be entirely devoted to global renovation.

Faced with the urgency of renovating an aging building stock as well as increasing energy performance objectives, Renodays has established itself as a meeting dedicated to changes in the renovation sector. The event will now focus on the main levers for improving the performance of existing buildings: insulation, energy equipment, innovative materials, decarbonization of constructive solutions, quality of use or even adaptation to climate change.

Beyond the presentation of products and technical solutions, Renodays seeks to respond to the operational difficulties which still slow down the massification of renovationssuch as the lack of coordination between actors, the evolution of skills, regulatory constraints and the need to propose more global renovations.

The forum will be structured around exhibition spaces, conferences, demonstrations and professional meetings, and discussions will focus in particular on new regulations, feedback from construction sites and solutions allowing companies to develop their practices. Around fifty exhibitors and more than 120 conferences, workshops and masterclasses are announced.

Batimat further expands its offer

Historical event fair, Batimat retains its role as a locomotive. Visitors will find the major worlds that make it successful: structure and envelope, off-site construction, low-carbon materials, tools, construction equipment, vehicles, digital and even Construction Tech, which will welcome around sixty pitches of start-up.

In a context marked by the decline in new construction, the rise in renovation and the acceleration of decarbonization objectives, the show focuses on solutions capable of supporting this transition : low-carbon materials, energy renovation, off-site construction, digital tools, high-performance equipment and even new production methods. The 2026 edition is structured around three main axes:

– rethink construction methods;

– Restore and improve the existing;

– And reinvent the uses of the building.

An orientation which reflects the profound transformations to which the sector must respond, between environmental constraints, evolution of professions and the search for productivity.

Beyond the product exhibition, Batimat offers conferences, workshops, demonstrations and thematic tours devoted to technical innovations as well as new challenges in the sector. The Innovation Awards notably highlight solutions intended to develop professional practices. The space devoted to constructive solutions is also evolving with more space given to photovoltaics, concrete, wood, insulation and decarbonization solutions.

THE salon also includes Équipbaiededicated to the worlds of carpentry, closing, solar protection and associated equipment, thus strengthening its multi-specialist positioning, which will once again occupy three halls with nearly 250 exhibitors and several new features intended for architects, notably new workshops and new conference cycles.

Interclima focuses on low carbon solutions

Specialized in technical building equipment, Interclima is the professional meeting dedicated to climate engineering and solutions to improve the energy performance, comfort and quality of use of buildings. The living room highlights technologies intended to support renovation and new construction. The solutions presented respond in particular to the challenges linked to renewable energies, energy efficiency, summer comfort and the improvement of indoor air quality.

The show’s offer coversentire climate engineering chainfrom heat and cold production equipment to ventilation, hydraulic distribution, regulation and control systems for installations. Heat pumps, biomass boilers, solar thermal, connected solutions or equipment dedicated to the tertiary sector occupy a central place.

Beyond the presentation of innovations, Interclima offers conferencesthematic spaces and courses dedicated to professionals in order to decipher technical and regulatory developments in the sector. The show also places emphasis on innovation with spaces dedicated to start-up and emerging climate engineering solutions.

Integrated into Mondial du Bâtiment alongside Batimat and Idéobain, Interclima is part of a global approach to transformations in the sector, at the crossroads of energy, environmental and technical issues. The 2026 edition will be held at pavilion 7.3 of Paris Expo Porte de Versaillesfrom September 28 to October 1.

Idéobain wants to reposition the bathroom at the heart of sustainable building issues

Specializing in bathroom design and equipment, Idéobain is the benchmark professional meeting for players in this sector, the show bringing together manufacturers, industrialists, installers, architects, distributors and specifiers around developments in a space that has become strategic in construction and renovation projects.

Long associated only with comfort or aesthetics, the bathroom is today confronted with new challenges: control of water consumption, accessibility, adaptation to the aging of the population, durability of equipment and evolution of uses. Idéobain thus highlights solutions allowing the design of more sober, functional and scalable spaces.

The offer presented will cover the entire bathroom value chain, from sanitary appliances to taps, including technical equipment, furniture, shower solutions, spa and wellness equipment, coverings, tiling and even accessories and solutions dedicated to comfort.

Beyond the product exhibition, the show will offer technical demonstrations, conferences and spaces dedicated to innovations. Discussions will focus in particular on new user expectations, regulatory developments, reducing the environmental footprint of equipment and new design and installation practices.

For its 2026 edition, Idéobain is evolving in a new environment with an establishment in pavilion 7.2 of Paris Expo Porte de Versaillesa merger aimed at strengthening synergies between the renovation, technical equipment and interior design professions.
