Opportunities are knocking aplenty: ZAK Trade Fairs & Exhibitions Pvt Ltd

Knock! Knock! Knock! Opportunities are knocking aplenty: S.A. Ahmed, Director, ZAK Trade Fairs & Exhibitions Pvt. Ltd.,
Please give an overview of Indian Fenestration Industry.
Mr. S. A. Ahmed
The Indian Fenestration market which includes windows, facades and doors, has seen the emergence of hi-tech technology driven and custom made solutions in the last decade. This sector is on an upward growth and will also witness a surge in growth in the years to come. The growth for the windows and doors market will come from the rising demand of the housing sector and the façade growth will be spurred from the commercial sectors with more soaring foreign investments coming to India. Contrary to many reports, the Indian industries are definitely growing and of-lately there has been an upgrade of technologies happening.

What changes are seen in the recent past in the Fenestration Industry?
The fast changing Indian Fenestration industry over the past decade has seen high performance glasses, system windows, etc entering into India. But in the last few years, there has been an increased awareness of quality products which has seen the system window houses go aggressive on their promotion which in turn has made the end users more aware about quality window products. Double glazed glass, laminated glass, etc are being looked at seriously by the end users for acoustic comfort, thermal comfort, etc. Fabricators from Far East & Middle East entered into India and have executed projects and many more are planning to come. All this will enhance the quality of work and of course increase competition.

We at Zak, have all the right players, technology manufacturers, etc showcasing their various solutions for the glass, fenestration & extrusion industry. I invite one and all to attend this edition of Zak 2012 which will be held in Pragati Maidan 14-16 December, which is our best ensemble of solutions till date which is signed, sealed & delivered straight from our hearts.

As I said earlier, opportunities are knocking aplently. Grab them.

What’s new at Zak 2012?
A visitor is satisfied only if he gets to see new “Innovations” every year which will help him upgrade/enhance his current setup. This year at Zak 2012, we are not only showcasing new innovations of products but also new companies which means new products. Over the last 10 months, Mr Arvind Kumar - VP, Zak Group and myself have put together a fine ensemble of 410 exhibitors covering the A-Z of the fenestration industry. This will ensure that a visitor is fully satisfied during his visit to Zak 2012.

Apart from the exhibition, we have launched two new programs. The first one is a workshop and a joint initiative with the Federation of Safety Glass (FOSG) titled “Kaanch-Ki-Paathshala” which will target the finishing industry whereas the second one is our personal initiative to push energy saving windows via thermal broken profiles titled “Aluminium Thermal Break Symposium.” Apart from this, we have the 2nd edition of uPVC Profiles conference along with the 2nd edition of the Aluminium Surface Finish Symposium.

Conference on Surface Finishing for Aluminium Extrusions
Aluminum has been identified as the most versatile metal, and is consumed widely next to steel. Its amazing and versatile qualities render itself to an almost endless range of applications. Aluminum touches our daily life in various forms ranging from Extrusions (door & window), Castings (auto parts), Tubes (radiators & other HVAC systems), Sheetcoils (roofing/automobile), Plates (shipping & tooling), Foil (food packaging) and Forgings (auto parts) to the finest value addition in many forms. Aluminum is unique when it comes to a combination of characteristics such as its superior weight to strength ratio, flexibility while being durable, corrosive resistant and, most importantly, it’s hundred percent recyclable, thereby possesses the qualities of a green material. Hence coating for Aluminium becomes very important due to its wide usage.

The 2nd Zak Aluminium Surface Finish Symposium will provide a knowledge platform on the global best practices in coating on aluminium extruded profiles. This symposium will help the applicators to find out how to apply the best practices to do more with less, increase efficiency and reduce the environmental impact of major projects.

Key attractions:
  • Introduction of quality labels – Qualicoat, Qualanod, Qualisteelcoat and Qualideco.
  • In depth interactive workshops on pre-surface treatment systems
  • Workshops on coating technologies – Innovation and right application
  • Roadmap for Quality: An engaging group discussion with panel representation from leading Architect, Developer, Installer, Coater and Supplier.
