GREEN ASHCON 2025
The conference will feature technical sessions, expert talks, and industry presentations on the following key themes:
GREEN BUILDCON 2025
India is witnessing rapid growth in infrastructure development, making the construction industry one of the largest contributors to the national economy. However, with this growth comes a major challenge, the depletion of natural resources and the need to preserve the environment. The concept of Green Building is also known as sustainable or eco-friendly construction which focuses on creating structures that are environmentally responsible and resource-efficient throughout their entire life cycle: from design and construction to operation, maintenance, and renewal. Green buildings are designed to use less water, conserve energy, reduce waste, and create healthier living and working environments. They play a crucial role in addressing climate change and promoting sustainable urban development.
Modern green building materials are developed from industrial and agricultural by-products, helping reduce waste and carbon emissions. These include: Fly Ash, Construction & Demolition Waste, Industrial/Mining Waste, Red Mud, Agro Waste, Natural Fibres, FGD Gypsum, Geopolymer Cement, Bamboo, Engineered Wood and Waste Plastic Bricks.
Conference will have various Technical Sessions and Presentations like:
Day 1 – Friday, 5th December 2025
Day 2 – Saturday, 6th December 2025
Day 3 – Sunday, 7th December 2025
