India's planning commission has projected an investment of US$ 1
trillion for the infrastructure sector during the 12th Five Year
Plan, with 40 per cent of the funds coming from the private sector.
It is one of the major sectors that propel overall development of the
Indian economy. Unlike other developed countries, India's
geographical position poses some challenges in huge infrastructural
development like building of roads, flyovers, airports, damns &
bridges, etc. In the modern infrastructural methods, precast
technology is the most safer and durable option for building
technology than some of the traditional methods. Pioneering use of
precast technology can change the face of Indian economy by speeding
up the course of action across varied proposed infrastructure
projects. Expansions of Metro and Mono railway routes across various
Tier I cities in India is one such example of implementation of the
same.

Recognizing Concrete Show India 2014 as a trade opportunity for
domestic & international companies to realize the huge untapped
potential that the construction industry presents in India, the event
will witness participation from countries like China, Germany,
Greece, India, Italy, Korea, Singapore, South Africa, Taiwan, UK and
USA. The event has participation from some leading companies that
include Adeka, Apollo Infratech Pvt. Ltd. ACE Associates, Atlas
Copco, Conmat, Godrej & Boyce, Toyota Forms India Pvt. Ltd, Ultratech
Cement Ltd, and more amongst other Industry players. UBM India's
focus for Concrete India 2014 is also to bring to the forefront for
discussion, the challenges faced by the industry. The first day of
the event will be marked by a conference, based on the theme of
'Infrastructure & Sustainability: A Fresh Approach'. Global
Challenges for Sustainable Infrastructure in Metropolitan Cities,
Infrastructure Transportation projects - Perspective from MMRDA:
Present and Future, Nano-Technology with Ceramic Coating to aid
sustainability are some of the topics which will be discussed along
the sidelines of the event.

Joji George, Managing Director, UBM India says, "In the coming
decade, concrete as an industry in India is set for an ambitious leap
