About Expo Conseil

Geographic reach: France – Hauts-de-France region, France – national exhibitors and brands, Neighboring European markets interested in northern French construction sector

Expo Conseil is a French exhibition organizer specializing in construction and building industry events with a strong regional focus in the north of France. NORDBAT, the flagship “Salon des Professionnels de la Construction des Régions Nord de France,” has been organized by Expo Conseil since its creation in 1998, positioning the company as a long‑standing partner to contractors, prescribers, and construction product manufacturers in the Hauts‑de‑France region.

Operating from Lille, Expo Conseil has built NORDBAT into a high‑impact biennial platform at Lille Grand Palais, bringing together more than 400 exhibitors on around 20,000 m² and attracting close to 17,000–18,000 visitors in recent editions, with record growth reported in 2024 and 2026. Beyond trade floor logistics, Expo Conseil curates a rich program of talks and side events that reflect major sector challenges such as decarbonation, durable materials, reuse, and innovative architecture, as evidenced by the thematic content and news section published under the NORDBAT brand.

The organizer emphasizes approachable, human‑scale formats: NORDBAT is designed as a single, unified exhibition plateau rather than fragmented halls, fostering cross‑trade encounters between structural works, site equipment, services, and joinery suppliers. Expo Conseil’s value proposition lies in delivering proximity to regional markets while remaining attractive to national brands.

Through NORDBAT and related content initiatives, the company provides exhibitors with qualified decision‑maker traffic and visitors with an efficient overview of solutions for construction, renovation, and sustainable building. With over 25 years of continuous activity in the sector, Expo Conseil is regarded locally as a reference organizer for professional building trade shows in northern France.
