Howick at Tampa BUILD Expo 2026

If you are in construction on the East Coast of the US, particularly in Florida, you will be no stranger to rising costs, tighter project timelines, and increasing pressure to build more resilient structures in storm prone regions.  

That is why Howick is heading to Tampa BUILD Expo 2026 again, bringing cold formed steel (CFS) solutions and roll-forming automation to the builders, designers and fabricators shaping Florida’s future.

Why we are exhibiting 

Florida is one of the fastest growing construction markets in the U.S., but it is also one of the most complex. Challenges like hurricane resilience, labour shortages, and rising material costs demand smarter, faster ways to build.
Enter cold formed steel.

Lightweight, non-combustible, dimensionally stable, and up to 60% lighter than timber, it is perfectly suited to Florida’s multifamily, modular, and residential construction needs. And with offsite and prefabricated construction gaining traction across the state, demand for precision framed components is only going to grow. 

That is where Howick technology comes in

Our light steel roll-forming machines are purpose built to help contractors, developers, and manufacturers scale framing production, reduce waste, and accelerate timelines, all without compromising quality.

Hear from subject matter expert: Tom Reed  We are also excited to share that Tom Reed, Howick’s Regional Manager for the US and Canada, will be presenting at one of the Tampa BUILD Expo classes. A recognised subject matter expert in cold formed steel framing and offsite construction workflows, Tom will  discuss the pros and cons of building with wood versus steel. He will look at comparative cost and performance issues to sustainability and digital fabrication, helping you make smarter framing decisions for your next project.
