Jorakay Corporation Drives 'Build Today, Beyond Tomorrow' Towards a Sustainable Quality Construction Era, Reinforcing the JORAKAY EXPERT Image with 6 Comprehensive Construction Innovation Clusters at Architect '69
Jorakay Corporation Co., Ltd., a leader and expert in comprehensive construction, repair, and decoration materials, is advancing to set a new standard for the Thai construction industry at Architect '69 through the JORAKAY EXPERT PAVILION. This cutting-edge booth not only stands out with its creative design but also reflects an interesting sustainability concept. Jorakay is committed to driving its business according to the vision "Build Today, Beyond Tomorrow" to emphasize its identity as "JORAKAY EXPERT," specializing in addressing construction pain points and creating new values based on real user feedback, covering everyone from homeowners to contractors and project developers. The company presents innovations across 6 clusters that encompass all aspects of construction, supporting structural work, flooring, walls, rooftops, and even mega projects, showcasing Jorakay's role as a comprehensive construction innovation leader.
Jorakay reveals that the construction industry in Thailand is entering a significant turning point. Data from the Economic and Business Research Center of Siam Commercial Bank (SCB EIC) indicates that those planning to build homes have significantly changed their demands, focusing on three main trends: 1. Smart Value Living, where home builders seek value while prioritizing structural integrity to prevent long-term repair costs; 2. Adaptive Living, which allows for flexible home design and functionality to accommodate working from home, pet care, or family members of all ages, with future expansion or renovation in mind; and 3. Green Living, emphasizing the use of energy-efficient and environmentally friendly construction materials.
Meanwhile, construction business operators face the primary challenge of maintaining quality control to avoid long-term issues. For material manufacturers, the challenge lies in meeting market demands for products that reduce carbon dioxide emissions and are environmentally friendly. Successfully addressing these needs will enhance competitiveness in the premium market. Additionally, leveraging technology to improve management efficiency and customer service is essential for modern product manufacturers. This data clearly indicates that the Thai construction materials market is no longer competing on price but on quality, innovation, and sustainability.
Dr. Jirath Sirichalermpong, CEO of Jorakay Corporation Co., Ltd., stated, "In a rapidly changing world, the construction materials industry is facing a significant transition. Today, the market is no longer just about price competition but is measured by quality and innovation, alongside a noticeable shift in consumer behavior towards environmental consciousness. The new generation understands that a better environment leads to a better life for everyone. Jorakay will continue to develop innovations that address users' pain points and drive the industry towards sustainability, ensuring that choosing Jorakay products means choosing quality, efficiency, and a commitment to health and the environment."
"For over three decades, Jorakay has witnessed the evolution of the construction industry through various eras, maintaining its leadership by continuously innovating solutions that meet user needs and setting new standards for the Thai construction sector. One thing that has never changed is our commitment to the highest quality standards, derived from deep market understanding and ongoing research and development, to build long-term trust and confidence among customers. Amidst the current economic uncertainty, Jorakay products are ready to be a high-quality, durable, and cost-effective choice for homeowners, contractors, or project owners. We believe that visitors to the JORAKAY EXPERT PAVILION at Architect '69 will be inspired by construction innovations rooted in quality, efficiency, and sustainability in every dimension," Dr. Jirath concluded.
At Architect '69, Jorakay presents a new experience through the JORAKAY EXPERT PAVILION, designed by Integrated Field, a Thai design company that boldly breaks traditional design boundaries. The concept places sustainability at the heart of the project, with the entire structure built from over 1,000 pieces of "plantation pine plywood," a natural material that is low in carbon emissions, strong, and flexible, forming a modular structure that can be disassembled and reused. This reflects that Jorakay's sustainability concept is not only in its products but in every detail of the design. The intention behind designing a booth structure that can be disassembled and reassembled for future opportunities reinforces Jorakay's vision of Build Today, Beyond Tomorrow, considering sustainability for the future. Additionally, visitors will encounter a special highlight, a crocodile sculpture named "Nong Khae," made from the same modular parts, where booth visitors can rest on its back, emphasizing design that comes with functionality.
