In 2019, for the first time BAU will cover a surface of 200.000 m²

The construction of the new exhibition halls C5 and C6 will increase the exhibition space of BAU to 200,000 square metres. BAU 2019, which will take place from 14 to 19 January 2019 at the Munich Fairgrounds, will thus use the full potential of Messe München's capacity. It is the biggest BAU since its beginnings in 1964. As always, the halls are organised according to materials, products and themes. The two new halls bring about some changes in the hall structure.

Structural changes in halls A5 and A6 have an impact on the floor covering, effecting the area of row A. The layout in halls A1 to A4 will correspond to the one at BAU 2017. The area of stones, soils, building materials, and joining solutions traditionally covers 22,000 square metres in Halls A1 and A2. It includes sand-lime brick, concrete, pumice and fibre cement building materials, plaster, screeds, and insulating materials. The exhibitors will present solutions from the areas of dry-wall interior construction, prefabricated buildings, and facade systems.

The manufacturers of floor coverings will have more space compared to BAU 2017. They will now take up the entire space of the two Halls A5 and A6. The exhibitors there will be presenting the entire range of products from elastic materials (linoleum, PVC, rubber, cork) and textiles to laminate and parquet flooring—including floor-laying technology and equipment.

Halls B1/C1, B4/C4 and B6/C6 form connected exhibition areas in rows B and C. Halls C5 and C6 will also be added—this means 20,000 square metres more space.

Construction tools and chemical building products will also be given an extra half of the hall space, resulting from the larger total area. They will now take up the complete Halls B6 and C6. Leading manufacturers show how and where their extensive range of products is applied. This also includes solutions for fire and noise protection. "Tradesmen Meet", previously located in Hall B0, will in future also be in Hall C6 around the construction tools.

In 2019, building and facade systems made of steel will also be found in Hall B2, as well as systems, products and surfaces made of stainless steel, zinc and copper.

A new exhibition area in Hall C2 connects the theme of light with the theme of smart building/building automation. In the lighting sector, the focus is on daylight management, lighting control, lighting concepts, daylight versus artificial light. Exhibitors of building automation and control systems are brought together to form a link to already existing themes such as facade systems, windows and doors, and energy technology.

BAU-IT, the largest show of its kind in Europe, moves to Hall C5 in 2019, and for the first time, it covers a complete hall. It offers visitors a wide range of IT solutions in the fields of tender and award process, billing, project planning, measurement technology, project management, and controlling. For the first time, it also features the "Digital Village". There, the focus is on digital building initiatives. In addition to a small forum, it offers start-ups, software providers and the construction industry in general the opportunity to present their digital future concepts.

The motto in the smaller Hall B0 is "Investing in the future". There you will find, for instance, contact persons from institutes and associations in the construction industry. The forum in Hall B0 will focus on the topics of research and funding in the construction industry. In addition, there will be a series of lectures on the subject of building redevelopment.

The wide range of products and services offered at BAU 2019 is tailored to all target groups relevant to the construction industry.
