PREFACE:

People say that Belgians are born with a brick sitting in their stomachs. Yet, judging by the range of building materials featured in this publication, things may get a little cramped in the average citizen’s digestive system, what with all the other materials Flanders has on offer.

 These often are innovative products and construction technologies that are adaptable and responsive to the changing needs of home owners as to their comfort, safety, health and living environment or to the pressures on the built environment (energy efficiency, environmental sustainability...).

 This sourcing guide offers and unrivalled product mix: aggregates, bricks, pavers, flags, roofing materials, precast concrete elements, steel building components, access flooring, cladding, fibre cement products, concrete formwork shuttering, drainage systems, reconstructed and engineered stone, composite concrete floors, hollowcore slab production equipment, masonry and concrete reinforcement...

 By no means does this guide pretend to offer a complete and exhaustive listing of all Flanders-based suppliers of each of the products under review. Not by far... In fact it is only meant to be a first “instalment” of what is bound to become your definitive guide to sourcing suppliers of high-performance building materials from Flanders.

 Do check www.flanderstrade.com for regular updates and order your - fattened up - print version there. Still not found what you are looking for, though? You require in-depth information on construction and building materials or techologies “made in Flanders” or would like to have more details on buildingrelated partnering meetings?

 At the end of this publication, both sections “Meet the builders... at the building events in Flanders” include details of construction-related organizations committed to providing you with the right answers and where to meet up with them.
