MadeExpo, also known as the Milan Building Materials Exhibition, is one of the two pillar exhibitions organized by Federlegno Arredo, the Italian Wood and Furniture Association, alongside the Saloni (Milan Furniture Fair), which boasts a glorious 56-year history. The two are sister shows: while Saloni focuses on furniture, MADEexpo concentrates on system solutions related to architectural design and engineering, including all kinds of building materials, construction production technologies and equipment beyond furniture and decoration. Since 2013, the show has been held as a biennial event in odd-numbered years.

The Milan Furniture Fair (Saloni) is hailed as the "Oscar" and "Olympic" event of world home design and display, and is a sacred gathering place for home designers and industry players from around the world. It is also an exhibition that Chinese professional home manufacturers are extremely eager to attend; however, since its successful launch, it has never been open to Chinese exhibitors, although it attracts thousands of Chinese professional visitors every year.

As a leading international exhibition for the building and construction industry, MadeExpo presents a complete overview of building materials, construction systems, windows and envelopes, interior finishes, and the digital technologies and services transforming the sector. It offers exhibitors and visitors a comprehensive platform to explore innovative products, technical solutions and design trends from Italy and around the world.

Held in Milan - one of the world's most important capitals of architecture and design - the exhibition serves as a key meeting point for architects, engineers, contractors, developers, designers and industry professionals, fostering knowledge exchange, partnership building and business development across the global construction and building materials market.
