Oir history
Every edition, a purpose…
Edifica is a meeting point for the construction industry and its entire value chain. Since 1990, this trade fair has been organized by the Chilean Chamber of Construction to highlight the value and contribution of this sector.
Due to the pandemic, the event was postponed by one year, making EDIFICA the first large-scale commercial event in Santiago after sanitary restrictions were lifted.
The participation of China and Turkey makes this the most significant edition in terms of the range of solutions on display.
Edifica establishes itself as an international trade fair, with 47% of its exhibits coming from different countries.
The International Construction Fair (FIIC) is established, bringing together Edifica, ExpoHormigón, and CONEXPO LA. Thematic halls and the International Pavilion are introduced. That same year, the FIIC Annual Congress and the Innovation and Construction Congress are held.
An agreement is signed with the Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM), incorporating CONEXPO into the 2015 and 2017 trade fairs.
The painful experience of the February 27, 2010 earthquake led Edifica 2011 to focus on reconstruction plans.
Edifica is held within the framework of the 27th Inter-American Congress of the Construction Industry.
Due to the large number of exhibitors and its growing reach, Edifica is decided to be held in a biennial format.
A thematic hall dedicated specifically to infrastructure and construction machinery is introduced.
ExpoHormigón joins Edifica through the promotion of the Cement and Concrete Institute (ICH).
The first edition of the Construction Fair, Edifica, is held, bringing together key stakeholders from across the industry.
