Six Pillars of Surface Innovation Grounded in Material-Led Philosophy

SURFACE EDITS 2026 differs from previous showcases, which used thematic storytelling to explore design, by adopting a material-led philosophy. It showcases how craftsmanship, innovation, sustainability, and technical performance impact every aspect of the design process.

Through its Six Pillars of Surface Innovation—Bespoke & Handcrafted Surfaces, Digital Craftsmanship, High-Performance Commercial Surfaces, Sustainable Surface Solutions, Acoustic & Wellness Solutions, and Surface Renewal & Architectural Films—the exhibition demonstrates how today's interior materials extend beyond aesthetics to enhance wellbeing, durability, functionality and environmental performance.

Ardex showcases advanced adhesive technologies that provide the foundation for long-lasting carpet and vinyl flooring installations, while Sol Luminaire demonstrates how architectural lighting enhances texture, colour and spatial experience. These collaborations embody Goodrich Global's vision of integrated interior ecosystems where every material contributes to performance, aesthetics, and longevity.

"Designing the Future Through Surfaces…. The future of design is not defined by individual materials, but by the surfaces that bring spaces to life. SURFACE EDITS 2026 celebrates the materials that bring those ideas to life. More than launching new products, we are bringing together people, partnerships and knowledge that empower architects and designers to create spaces with greater confidence. We hope every visitor leaves inspired—not only by what they see, but by the possibilities they can create." Jean Leong | Regional Head, Marketing & Branding Communications, Goodrich Global

Goodrich Global Unveils SURFACE EDITS 2026, Showcasing The Future Of Material Innovation Across Asia

HONG KONG, Sept. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- At the Belt and Road Summit 2026 in Hong Kong, AluHouse Group, a global leader in Modular Integrated Construction (MiC), signed three Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) with Australian partners Northland Group Pty Ltd, DCF Property Group, and Up Modular Pty Ltd. This marks a major milestone in AluHouse's strategy to introduce its proven modular technology to the Australian market.

"This partnership is an important milestone in AluHouse's globalisation journey," said Eric Kwong, Founder and Chairman of AluHouse Group. "Australia's housing shortage demands innovative, scalable solutions. We will leverage our Hong Kong-proven MiC technology and project experience to deepen local collaboration and help ease Australia's housing challenge."

Responding to Australia's Housing Challenge

Australia faces a severe housing shortage, with a projected shortfall of 380,000 homes by 2030 according to the Urban Development Institute of Australia. In response, the Australian government has committed over AUD 174 million to promote Modern Methods of Construction (MMC). While MMC can cut construction times by 20–50% and costs by 20%, market penetration remains below 5%.

"Australian developers see the efficiency gains of MMC but often lack the expertise in modular design, compliance, supply chain developments, logistics, and on-site installation," said Johnny Nassif, Director of Northland Group. "We look forward to leveraging AluHouse's mature modular systems to deliver high-quality housing efficiently."

Global Modular Expertise, Local Commitment

The three partnerships bring together complementary capabilities required for successful large-scale Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) adoption in Australia, covering modular residential and mixed-use development, prefabricated building R&D, and strategic collaboration across Australia's rapidly growing construction sector. AluHouse will provide a full-chain, one-stop solution covering all stages from project development and design to manufacturing and installation.

"Hong Kong, as a 'super-connector' and 'value-adder', continues to bridge Hong Kong and international markets," Eric Kwong added. "The Belt and Road Summit provided an ideal platform for connecting with Australian partners, with important support from the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKDTC)." Eric Kwong, emphasized that the company seeks deep local integration rather than just viewing Australia as an overseas market. "Our vision is to integrate globally proven MiC technology and Hong Kong MiC expertise with Australia's building regulations, local market needs, and supply chain ecosystem."

About AluHouse

AluHouse is a global leader in modular construction. Headquartered in Hong Kong, the company operates one of the world's largest modular manufacturing hubs in China's Greater Bay Area (48,000 modules/year), with a second facility under construction in Saudi Arabia (30,000 modules/year).

As one of the few modular solution providers with expertise in steel, concrete, and aluminum modular systems, AluHouse provides integrated, end-to-end services—from design and engineering to manufacturing, logistics, and on-site installation. Its projects span high-rise residential housing, apartment, student housing, schools, hospitals, and public utilities, serving markets across North America, Australia, New Zealand, the Middle East, and Greater China.
