SE Construction Expo 2026

On a lovely sunny day, it was great to exhibit at the South East Construction Expo & Awards at the American Express Community Stadium in Brighton, where we had a stand on the Terrace.

It was good to catch up with our suppliers, subcontractors, consultants, and a broad mix of digital, tech, and service providers across the sector.

The stand was busy throughout, with a steady flow of conversations across the day. Alongside the exhibition, there was a strong programme of talks. Key themes included the increasing use of AI and digital tools in construction, as well as wider discussions around innovation, sustainability, skills, and how businesses are using data to plan work, manage risk, and identify opportunities.

We also invited visitors to take part in a charity vote at our stand. Following a strong response across the day, Rockinghorse Children's Charity was the clear favourite. The charity has supported children and families across Sussex for more than 50 years, funding essential equipment, services, and projects that help improve care for young patients.

Based on the votes received, Buxton Building has now made a donation to Rockinghorse Children’s Charity. Thank you to everyone who took the time to take part.

A valuable opportunity to reconnect and strengthen relationships across the industry.
