Oakio Concludes Successful Participation at Batimat Paris 2024
Oakio has successfully concluded its participation in Batimat 2024, held in Paris from September 30th to October 3rd. The event provided a valuable platform to showcase a range of innovative Wood-Plastic Composite (WPC) solutions, while also facilitating connections with industry professionals from across the globe.
Highlighting Innovation and Sustainability
At Batimat, Oakio presented its latest range of sustainable building materials, including decking, cladding, fencing, beam, and pergolas. These WPC products are crafted from a blend of recycled oak wood fibers and high-density polyethylene, offering superior durability, weather resistance, and low maintenance. The Elashield decking, recognized for its advanced slip resistance, attracted attention for its use in poolside and high-traffic areas. The Armstrong WPC pergola and Proshield WPC beam, with their enhanced protection against moisture, UV rays, and staining, also drew significant interest for their aesthetic appeal and long-lasting performance.
The focus at the exhibition was on showcasing how these products combine sustainability with innovative design, contributing to environmentally conscious building practices. The positive reception from visitors reflected growing interest in high-performance materials that enhance outdoor construction projects while maintaining eco-friendly standards.
Engaging with Industry Leaders
Batimat 2024 offered numerous opportunities to engage with industry leaders, architects, builders, and potential partners. Discussions at the event provided valuable insights into market trends, evolving customer preferences, and emerging construction technologies. These interactions will inform Oakio's ongoing efforts to develop products that meet the needs of a rapidly changing industry.
The event also served as a networking platform, fostering potential collaborations and strengthening Oakio's presence in the global construction market.
Looking to the Future
With Batimat 2024 now concluded, Oakio looks ahead to new opportunities in sustainable building materials. The event underscored the rising demand for eco-friendly solutions, and Oakio is positioned to meet this demand through continued innovation and product development.
Gratitude is extended to everyone who visited the stand, participated in discussions, and contributed to the success of the event. As Oakio moves forward, the focus remains on delivering high-quality, sustainable building materials that drive progress in modern construction.
