Russian Construction Week 2025 was once again a major event that brought together RosBuild 2025, the International Exhibition for Building and Finishing Materials and Technologies, World of Glass 2025, the 26th International Exhibition for Glass Products, Manufacturing, Processing and Finishing Technology, and the Forum for Building the Future of Russia Together.
RCW 2025 confirmed its status as one of the main business platforms for this country's construction industry, bringing together leading industry companies. The Week’s participants were real estate developers, manufacturers of building materials, engineers, architects, experts, and government representatives. They all had a unique opportunity for direct dialogue, exchange of experience, and demonstration of the latest technologies.

Show highlights
The exhibition presented the latest achievements in various sectors of the construction industry. The exhibited products and services included construction and finishing materials, landscaping technologies, lighting engineering, illumination equipment, IT and BIM systems in construction, energy-saving solutions, smart house systems and automation, facade and roof structures, architecture, design and urbanism, and low-rise and modular construction. Thus, RosBuild reflected the latest trends of the industry and showed a wide range of advanced technologies and materials from digitalization of construction processes to energy-efficient developments.
Group stands of several Russian regions such as Omsk, Saratov, Tver, Vladimir and Voronezh oblasts showcased the construction potential of Russia's regions. They demonstrated regional projects, construction materials and technologies. This format of participation gave Russian regional companies a chance to establish themselves at the federal level, generate new interregional business ties, and share experience with peers from other regions and countries.
A special focus of RosBuild 2025 was the Illuminating Cities special project. It was organised at the exhibition for the first time. This platform brought together leading Russian lighting equipment manufacturers, architects, developers and public customers to present cutting-edge solutions for urban lighting. Its visitors got acquainted with the latest lighting design technologies for the urban environment from smart street lighting systems to artistic architectural lighting of buildings. The project highlighted the importance of modern lighting technology in the development of a comfortable urban infrastructure and environment, and received a great response from a professional audience.
The RosBuild 2025 conference programme was diverse and practical. The Forum for Building the Future of Russia Together hosted more than 100 events dedicated to the most relevant issues of the Russian construction industry.
Key events included the 10th Russian Meeting on the Development of Housing Construction in the Russian Federation, the Conference on Digitalization in Housing Development, and Low House Russia 2025. Leading experts and business representatives discussed strategic issues of the industry from the introduction of AI and BIM in construction to incentives for the development of individual housing and industrial housing construction.
This year, Russian Construction Week hosted the first Supplier Day. It included a series of B2B negotiations between developers and suppliers of building materials and equipment aimed at developing direct cooperation. There was also a summit for purchasing directors of development companies dedicated to effective supply chain management in construction.
Thus, the RosBuild conference programme has provided industry professionals with a full-fledged space for dialogue, signing of contracts, and development of joint solutions. Many participants say that RosBuild 2025 has become an important growth point for them as new business contacts, interest in innovation, and constructive networking with the authorities have laid the foundation for further business development in 2025.
World of Glass 2025
The 26th International Exhibition for Glass Products,
Manufacturing, Processing and Finishing Technology
World of Glass 2025 is the main event of the Russian glass industry. It was already its 26th edition this year. The show is dedicated to the latest technologies and equipment for the manufacture and processing of glass, glass products, and related materials.
Organised by EXPOCENTRE AO
Supported by the Russian Ministry of Industry and Trade, the Glass Union, the Russian Union of Designers, the National Association of Manufacturers of Building Materials, Products and Structures
Under auspices of the Russian Chamber of Commerce and Industry
Exhibitors: 230 companies
Countries: 10 (Belarus, China, France, Germany, Hungary, India, Italy, Russia, Switzerland, Turkiye)
Floor space: 8,500+ sq. m.
Show highlights
The exhibitors showed products and solutions for all stages of glass production, i.e., equipment and technologies for the production of flat glass, mirrors, foam glass, glass blocks, various refractory materials and tools, translucent structures, as well as other innovative developments for the glass industry.
The exhibition welcomed the largest Russian manufacturers of glass products, as well as dozens of foreign companies. The contribution of manufacturers from China was particularly noticeable. There was even a local Chinese district at the show. The Chinese exhibitors brought advanced high-tech equipment for glass processing such as flat glass cutting lines, laser cutting, digital glass printing, automated units for assembling double-glazed windows, and much more.
The visitors could see live demonstrations of key processes, such as laser cutting and direct printing on glass. The presented large-format glass products aroused great interest, i.e., curved tempered double-glazed windows up to 7 m long, and special lifting and mounting manipulators for installing panoramic windows. These new products clearly demonstrated the current technological trends in the industry such as the desire to increase the size of glazing, and the strength and energy efficiency of glass, as well as the transition to innovative automated solutions for the processing and installation of glass structures.
Conference programme
World of Glass 2025 was as usual accompanied by an extensive conference programme aimed at professionals of the glass market. Over four days, there were 17 workshops, conferences, and panels. One of the key events was the first edition of the Time of Glass Conference. It was organised with the participation of the OKNA MEDIA portal and brought together more than 100 representatives of the sector of double–glazed windows and glass processing to discuss pressing issues and market prospects.
Another key event was the First International Glass Congress. The event was organised by EXPOCENTRE in partnership with the Association of Container Glass Manufacturers. The congress has become a new global platform for dialogue between manufacturers, suppliers, and processors of glass. Its purpose is to provide a comprehensive analysis of the current state of the global and Russian glass industry, identify growth points, and share best practices for implementation of innovations.
In addition, World of Glass 2025 featured panels dedicated to the future of the glass industry, forums and discussions on various topics ranging from architectural glass and facade design to digital transformation of glass production.
Over the course of four days, the exhibition was attended by thousands of professionals from the glass and related industries. They were representatives of manufacturing companies, developers, engineers, buyers, and researchers. World of Glass created all the conditions for achieving practical results. Many exhibitors found new customers and partners, and signed preliminary cooperation agreements.
Russian Construction Week 2025 demonstrated the sustainable development of the construction and glass industries despite external challenges. International participants in both exhibitions – from neighboring countries, Europe and Asia – have emphasized the openness of the Russian market for the exchange of experience and technologies. The abundance of innovations at the stands showed that the industry relies on digitalization and quality improvement.
According to experts, this year’s results of Russian Construction Week indicate a great potential for further growth as the discussed initiatives and projects will contribute to upgrade of construction in the Russian regions, development of exports of construction and glass technologies, as well as improvement of the investment climate.
EXPOCENTRE has already started preparations for the next edition of Russian Construction Week, which will once again bring together the industry’s leaders in 2026.
