10 Oct 2025 CW Team

Organised by Informa Markets in India, World of Concrete India 2025 is driving dialogue and collaboration across the concrete and construction industry. The event highlights cutting-edge technologies, sustainable building solutions, and emerging trends that are redefining infrastructure development in India.

Distinguished guests at the inauguration included Dr Brijesh Dixit, MD, MSIDC; Amar Choudhary, CEO, 1Lattice; Thomas Guillot, CEO, Global Cement and Concrete Association; Somenath Ghosh, VP, Consulting Engineers Association of India; and representatives from leading construction associations and Informa Markets.

“Concrete stands at the core of modern infrastructure, yet remains one of the least understood materials. The expo provides a critical platform for manufacturers, suppliers, and project professionals to exchange insights, foster innovation, and enhance quality standards,” said Dr Brijesh Dixit, MD, MSIDC.

The expo showcased industry leaders including Jindal Panther Cement, JSW Cement, UltraTech Cement, Sika India, Godrej Construction, and Fosroc Chemicals, alongside emerging solutions in sustainable construction, circular economy practices, and high-performance materials.

“Technologies like self-healing concrete, 3D printing, ultra-high-performance materials, AI-driven quality control, and automation are reshaping the industry. As infrastructure and housing demand grows, the focus must remain on sustainable, efficient, and durable construction,” said Amar Choudhary, CEO, 1Lattice.

The event also emphasised India’s green transition in construction, with the green cement market projected to grow from $2.31 billion to $3.28 billion by 2029, according to EY. Government-led infrastructure projects, urban development, and renewable energy initiatives are driving cement demand, creating opportunities for innovation, efficiency, and sustainability.

“World of Concrete India unites the concrete fraternity to showcase collaboration, technology adoption, and trends shaping the nation’s infrastructure future,” said Rajneesh Khattar, Sr Group Director, Informa Markets India.

The expo has received support from leading industry associations including NAREDCO Maharashtra, Builders Association of India, RMCMA, PMAI, Drycotec, AESA, Indian Concrete Institute (Pune), and Ferrocement Society (India), reinforcing its position as a key forum for India’s construction sector.
