History of the SEBC | Southeast Building Conference

Top

For 35 years, the SEBC has been the place to be to demonstrate new product or featured product releases to your targeted audience. We offer the best exposure for you to reach the Southeast’s Builders, Remodelers, Contractors, Developers and other building industry professionals.

Lawson Industries has participated in the SEBC Show every year since 1991. At Lawson, we continually strive to improve our products to make them both easier to install, and more user friendly, and we feel that exhibiting in the SEBC Show is provides the best opportunity to showcase these improvements, and also get the best bang for our buck.
