ICBMPT – International Conference on Building Materials, Products and Technologies – Brno 2025

28th International Conference on Building Materials, Products and Technologies

Join us in 2025 for a conference where we gather to focus on sharing the latest knowledge and innovation in the construction industry, with an emphasis on sustainability, safety and ethical standards. You will have the opportunity to discuss new materials and technologies that contribute to environmental protection and ensure a safe future for next generations. The conference also aims to provide a platform for establishing cooperation and developing connections with industry experts.

Responsible research

Responsible research in the field of construction (encompassing buildings and infrastructure) emphasizes the use of materials, products, and technologies that are circular, safe, sustainable, and socially beneficial – both for current and future generations. This approach takes into account technical, ecological, economic, energy, and social factors.

Safe future

A safe future in construction (buildings and infrastructure) depends on developing durable, resilient materials and technologies that lower production costs, cut resource consumption, reduce emissions, promote zero-waste processes, encourage reuse, and minimize environmental and societal impacts.

Key topics

Let’s discover what’s possible

Let’s explore the current societal needs that inspire new research topics and innovative development directions with practical applications. Together, we can support socially responsible research that paves the way for a safe future for generations to come, across both traditional and emerging ICBMPT conference topics.

Venue

A historic site of exceptional character and cultural significance

ICBMPT – International Conference on Building Materials, Products and Technologies – Venue - Hotel Continental Brno

Hotel Continental Brno, an iconic architectural landmark from the early 1960s, exemplifies the Czechoslovak avant-garde movement known as the ‘Brussels Style’. Designed by renowned architects Zdeněk Řihák, Vladimír Kovařík, and Alois Semela, this 15-story building showcases a perfect blend of modernism and functionality. Located in the heart of Brno, the hotel offers a unique connection to the city’s rich architectural history, being situated on a historic site linked to the prestigious architect Adolf Loos.

The hotel’s innovative design, which features a triskelion plan and high-pressure heating and ventilation systems, ensures comfort and ample natural light. Its luxurious interiors, highlighted by a stunning spiral staircase and distinctive Brussels Style elements, create an inspiring environment for conference attendees. These architectural marvels make Hotel Continental not only a prime location for our conference but also a place where history, design, and modern amenities come together to provide an exceptional experience for all participants.
