Edition of the congress



Who is this for?

Project owners, architects and specifiers, craftspeople and building contractors, design offices, technical inspectors and insurers, training organisations, local authorities. Whether you specify, design, build, inspect, insure or fund, if straw renovation crosses your projects, this congress is for you.​

Why join the International Straw Building Conference 2027?

To leave with something concrete

Documented renovation projects, proven ETI techniques, over ten years of field feedback. Enough to de-risk your next projects, not theory.

To meet the whole industry in one place

Four days to build the contacts that unblock a project: the right design office, the right insurer, the craftsperson who has already done what you're trying to do.

To get ahead of the curve

Professional standards for ETI and load-bearing straw are evolving right now. Here, they're explained by the very people writing them, before anyone else hears it.

To open up internationally

In the second half of the week, European and North American practices come to enrich the French perspective. A rare opportunity for cross-perspective.
