NRCA co-sponsored the sixth annual China Roofing & Waterproofing exposition June
12-14, 2008, in Shanghai. Sponsored by China National Waterproofing Building Materials
International Association (CNWBMIA), the show boasted 10,000 attendees and 160 exhibitors
from 14 countries.
NRCA was able to attract new exhibitors for the 2009 International Roofing Expo®
in Las Vegas Feb. 1-5, 2009, and add a new member from China. NRCA also sold several
of its publications to a nonprofit organization that is working with the Chinese
government to set standards for China's roofing industry.
NRCA helps CNWBMIA promote the China show to NRCA members and sell booth spaces
to international exhibitors located outside of China. NRCA also helps CNWBMIA when
it attends NRCA events.
China Roofing & Waterproofing 2009 will be held in Beijing Oct. 14-17, 2009.
NRCA also has good long-term relationships with the Japan Roofing Contractors Association,
Central Association of German Roofing Contractors and Canadian Roofing Contractors'
Association. NRCA meets with delegations from these organizations throughout the
year, exhibits at their trade shows and works with them to improve the industry.
