Show Introduction

Light + Building Frankfurt is the world’s most authoritative professional trade fair for lighting and smart building sectors, widely recognised as the trend barometer for lighting technology and intelligent living solutions. The exhibition integrates four major segments: lighting products, electrical installation technology, building automation and whole-house intelligence, covering the full industrial chain of lighting, low-voltage electronics and building smart systems.

Each edition hosts over 2,200 global exhibitors and welcomes architects, lighting designers, system integrators, lighting importers, real estate purchasers and electrical distributors from 150 countries. Driven by European energy-saving regulations and carbon-neutral building policies, demand keeps growing for daylight solutions, presence-sensing dimming, low-energy LED products, BIPV lighting and building energy management systems. Concurrent events include international lighting design forums, smart building summits, sustainable construction seminars and new product launches.

Chinese manufacturers of LED luminaires, LED drivers, lighting control systems, switches & sockets and smart home components can leverage this exhibition to develop EU markets and establish partnerships with construction contractors and brand importers. Halls are clearly segmented into indoor lighting, outdoor lighting, smart building and electrical zones to support targeted sourcing for professional visitors.
