Co-located with the MEP International Conference, Bedic 2024 focusses on ‘Advancing Building Envelope Design’ and marks the region’s first dedicated event on building envelope design and insulation.

With the support of Momrah, the National Committee for the Saudi Building Code, and leading industry partners, the conference will address the increasing demand for sustainable and energy-efficient building solutions in line with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030.
