New Zealand’s Demolition & Asbestos Conference and Expo

DECONNZ is New Zealand’s national conference and expo dedicated to the demolition and asbestos sector.

Created by industry, for industry, DECONNZ brings together industry practitioners, regulators, suppliers, clients, and subject-matter experts for two days of practical learning, real conversations, and real connection.

DECONNZ is designed to prioritise real-world experience, exhibitor visibility, and open discussion on the issues that actually affect work on the ground.

What makes DECONNZ different

• Real projects, real operators, real equipment: Content is grounded in New Zealand conditions, legislation, and site realities.

• Industry-led discussions: Speakers are selected for experience and credibility, not titles.

• Strong exhibitor engagement: The expo is central to the event - not an afterthought.

• Focused on practical outcomes: Delegates leave with insight they can apply on site and in business.
