Why participate POLYCLOSE?
Polyclose in Flanders Expo, Ghent is an important event for the entire outer shell of buildings. Windows, doors, façade technology and sun protection come together with access technology and automation.
The trade fair offers a complete overview of products and systems for new construction and renovation: from profiles, fittings and glass to façade cladding, dynamic sun protection and smart drives. Visitors will discover innovations that combine performance, comfort and aesthetics, with a focus on energy efficiency, circularity and ease of maintenance.
In addition to the exhibition, the focus is on solution-oriented comparisons and hands-on demonstrations, so that professionals can quickly determine the right configurations and compatibilities. Manufacturers show integrations with sensors, controls and building management systems and explain in detail how airtightness, acoustics and thermal performance are guaranteed. This makes the fair relevant for architects and engineering firms who want to specify on the basis of standardization and measurable performance, and for contractors who are looking for time-saving assembly and finishing solutions.
Polyclose is a distinctly B2B event where procurement teams and project leaders make agreements, validate assortment decisions, and combine supplier audits with product comparisons. Thanks to Ghent’s central location and its good accessibility via E40, R4, tram 1 and nearby airports, a visit can be planned efficiently, even for international teams.
The combination of product depth, system integrations and real-world demos makes Polyclose a strong platform in the Benelux for anyone looking to improve building envelope performance and accelerate projects with reliable, future-proof solutions.
