Next Stop: Orlando!
METALCON Returns October 7–9, 2026
at the Orange County Convention Center
METALCON is the largest international event in the metal construction and design industry.
🏅 We Did It! Built for a Cause
Together, we made it happen — through materials, funds, and teamwork.
At METALCON, we constructed a 2,500+ sq. ft. steel-frame Barndominium live on the show floor! The finished structure has now become a permanent retreat for veterans in Montana. From the first design sketch to the final walkthrough, this project united the METALCON community for a powerful purpose — and you were part of it.
2025 Top Products Award Winners
Exhibitors at the only global event dedicated exclusively to the application of metal in design and construction were invited to nominate their standout products for the prestigious METALCON Top Products Award
Winners were determined via an electronic voting process, which took place before and during the event, with more than 1k votes from industry professionals.
1st place: Malco Tools, Inc.
2nd place: S-5!
3rd place: Steel Dynamics, Inc.
Design District @ METALCON
Metal delivers a wide array of benefits to architectural design professionals, but there’s only one place to see, touch, and discuss all of them in-person.
The Design District at METALCON is a “show-within-a-show” that illustrates how metal can help you solve your toughest architectural, structural, environmental, and building performance challenges. Let us spark your creativity and introduce new ways of thinking about metal in construction and design.
