<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Singapore, 6 October 2026</strong> – World of Safety &amp; Health Asia (WSHAsia) and Bedok Safety Group (BSG) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to strengthen collaboration in Workplace Safety and Health (WSH), professional development, industry engagement, and the sharing of practical WSH knowledge and good practices.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The partnership brings together WSHAsia&#8217;s regional platform and BSG&#8217;s practitioner community, creating new opportunities for safety professionals to exchange knowledge, learn from one another and connect with the wider industry.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Turning Practical Experience into Shared Knowledge</strong></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">BSG has been actively bringing WSH professionals together through seminars, knowledge-sharing sessions, industry engagement and opportunities for practitioners to learn from one another. Its strength lies in its community of practitioners and their willingness to share practical WSH knowledge and experiences.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Through the new partnership, both organisations aim to take this exchange further—creating a two-way flow of knowledge between BSG&#8217;s practitioner network and the wider WSH community.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">“BSG has always been built on a strong community of WSH practitioners and the willingness to share practical knowledge and experiences. With WSHAsia on board, we see an opportunity to take this further. It is a two-way partnership—bringing more knowledge and professional connections into BSG, while bringing our members’ practical experiences, case studies, and good practices to a wider WSH community”</p>



<p class="has-text-align-right wp-block-paragraph">Steven Tan, <em>Chairman of BSG</em></p>
</blockquote>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Under the MOU, WSHAsia and BSG may collaborate across several areas, including the exchange of WSH good practices, case studies, emerging risks, regulatory developments and lessons learned. Both parties will also explore opportunities to support seminars, workshops, webinars, technical visits and other learning activities for WSH professionals.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The collaboration will extend to industry outreach, connecting WSH professionals, organisations, institutions and other relevant stakeholders. Both organisations will also promote practical applications of technology, digitalisation, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and other innovative WSH solutions, while showcasing meaningful WSH initiatives, achievements and good practices.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Sharing More, Reaching Further</strong></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">An important part of the partnership will be the sharing of WSHAsia&#8217;s content with BSG&#8217;s practitioner community. BSG will share WSHAsia&#8217;s bi-monthly e-Magazine and monthly e-Newsletter through its communication channels, giving its members greater access to regional WSH developments, insights, and resources.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The exchange will also work in the other direction. BSG may contribute relevant safety articles, case studies, event updates, and good practices for consideration by WSHAsia for publication and sharing through its media platforms.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This two-way exchange allows practical experiences from the workplace to reach a wider audience, while bringing broader industry knowledge and perspectives back to practitioners.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">“We believe some of the most valuable safety knowledge comes from the people who are actively applying it in the workplace. Our partnership with BSG gives us an opportunity to bring those practical experiences, case studies, and conversations closer to the wider WSH community, while creating more avenues for learning and professional development”</p>



<p class="has-text-align-right wp-block-paragraph">Raymond Wat, <em>Founder of WSHAsia</em></p>
</blockquote>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Investing in the Future of WSH</strong></p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" width="1024" height="680" src="https://wshasia.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/MOU-1024x680.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-3633" srcset="https://wshasia.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/MOU-1024x680.jpg 1024w, https://wshasia.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/MOU-300x199.jpg 300w, https://wshasia.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/MOU-767x509.jpg 767w, https://wshasia.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/MOU-1536x1020.jpg 1536w, https://wshasia.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/MOU-600x398.jpg 600w, https://wshasia.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/MOU.jpg 1996w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Beyond knowledge exchange, the partnership will also focus on the continued development of the WSH profession.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Both organisations recognise the importance of engaging students and emerging WSH practitioners, with opportunities for mentoring, industry exposure and knowledge-sharing to help the next generation build their capabilities and develop a stronger connection with the profession.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Together, BSG and WSHAsia aim to create more opportunities for learning, professional development and industry connection—while encouraging the continued exchange of practical knowledge across the WSH community.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>For BSG</strong>, the partnership provides an opportunity to extend the reach of its established practitioner platform.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>For WSHAsia</strong>, it strengthens its connection with professionals who are actively shaping WSH practices on the ground.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>BSG has built the platform. With WSHAsia on board, the partnership aims to extend its reach and create greater value for the WSH community.</strong></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"></p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As Korea’s construction industry shifts from a focus on new construction toward maintenance, renovation and deconstruction, a new professional platform is being launched to strengthen the safety and technological competitiveness of the deconstruction industry and explore its future market potential.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">KINTEX announced that the 2026 Korea International Construction &amp; Industrial Safety Expo (K-CONSAFETY EXPO 2026), taking place from October 14 to 16, 2026 at KINTEX in Korea, will introduce the new Advanced Deconstruction Technology Zone. In conjunction with the exhibition, the K-Deconstruction Conference 2026 will be held on October 14.</p>



<h6 class="wp-block-heading">Deconstruction Emerging as a Specialized Engineering Industry</h6>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">With redevelopment of Korea’s first-generation new towns gaining momentum and the number of aging buildings and social infrastructure facilities continuing to increase, structural deconstruction is attracting attention as an emerging growth area within the construction industry.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The Korean construction industry expects the domestic deconstruction market to reach approximately KRW 6 trillion by 2030.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Recent demolition accidents, including the collapse during demolition work on Seoul’s Seosomun Overpass, have once again highlighted the importance of structural assessment, professional deconstruction planning, construction management and advanced safety technologies when dismantling aging infrastructure.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Against this backdrop, there are growing calls to transform the conventional demolition sector, which has traditionally relied heavily on experience and manpower, into a specialized engineering industry integrating structural engineering, safety, machinery, AI and environmental technologies.</p>



<h6 class="wp-block-heading">From Blasting and Plant Deconstruction to Drones and AI Safety</h6>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The Advanced Deconstruction Technology Zone will present technologies and solutions covering the entire deconstruction lifecycle, including building and industrial facility deconstruction methods, demolition equipment, temporary structures, dust and environmental management, drones and unmanned technologies, and construction waste sorting.</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Inyoung Construction – Eco-friendly foam-based demolition technology and dry-cutting deconstruction methods for disaster-response applications</li>



<li>Korea Casco – Temporary safety systems for deconstruction projects, including system scaffolding, soundproof panels, wall clamps and jack supports</li>



<li>Korea Kacoh – Blasting demolition technologies for reinforced-concrete and steel structures</li>



<li>Ilwoong Engineering – DFD (Demolition Factory Jack Down System) technology designed to reduce noise and dust as well as structural collapse and overturning risks</li>



<li>Sungdo Construction Industry – Advanced technologies for complex industrial plant deconstruction</li>



<li>Daeyoung Construction Industry Development and Janghyung Industrial Development – High-pressure water spraying equipment and construction waste sorting solutions for dust suppression</li>



<li>Okdang Industry – AI-based safety management systems for deconstruction sites</li>



<li>Puriflight – Drone-based smart construction safety systems capable of remotely accessing high-altitude and hazardous areas and spraying water close to airborne-dust generation points</li>
</ul>



<h6 class="wp-block-heading">K-Deconstruction Conference 2026: “Shaping the Future of K-Deconstruction”</h6>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Alongside the exhibition, the K-Deconstruction Conference 2026 will take place on October 14 from 12:30 p.m. at Conference Room 304, KINTEX Exhibition Center 1.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Under the theme “Shaping the Future of K-Deconstruction,” the conference will focus on the policy, technology and safety challenges shaping the future of Korea’s deconstruction industry.</p>



<ol class="wp-block-list">
<li>Current status and advancement strategies for Korea’s deconstruction industry</li>



<li>Advanced deconstruction methods and international case studies</li>



<li>Seoul Metropolitan Government’s strengthened safety management measures for demolition sites</li>



<li>Lessons from the Gwangju Hak-dong and Seosomun Overpass demolition accidents and measures to prevent recurrence</li>



<li>R&amp;D achievements in deconstruction technologies</li>



<li>AI-based risk assessment systems for deconstruction projects</li>



<li>Training and development of professional deconstruction specialists</li>



<li>Current status and outlook for nuclear facility and industrial plant decommissioning</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Rather than treating recent demolition accidents simply as individual incidents, the conference will examine comprehensive prevention strategies from the perspectives of policy, technology, AI and professional workforce development. The program is therefore expected to attract strong interest from central and local governments, public-sector project owners, construction companies and specialized deconstruction contractors.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The conference is jointly organized by the Organizing Committee for the Advanced Deconstruction Technology Zone and Conference, the Structure Demolition &amp; Scaffolding Works Council of KOSCA, the Forum for Advancement of the Deconstruction Industry, the Research Group for Safe Building Deconstruction Planning and Construction Technology Development, the Korea Building Deconstruction Technology Research Institute, and KINTEX.</p>



<h6 class="wp-block-heading">“Safe Deconstruction Is Just as Important as Safe Construction”</h6>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Chun, Jae-Youl, Chairman of the Organizing Committee for the Advanced Deconstruction Technology Zone and Conference and representative of the Forum for Advancement of the Deconstruction Industry, said:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><em>“Korea’s construction industry has entered an era in which we must consider not only how to build safely, but also how to deconstruct structures safely and precisely by developing professional expertise and applying advanced technologies and equipment.”</em></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">He added that the Special Zone and Conference aim to help transform the conventional demolition industry into an advanced deconstruction sector combining safety, specialized engineering, AI and environmentally friendly technologies, while developing the event into Korea’s leading deconstruction industry platform connecting government, industry and academia.</p>



<h6 class="wp-block-heading">About K-CONSAFETY EXPO 2026</h6>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">K-CONSAFETY EXPO 2026 is a professional construction safety exhibition supported by major Korean government ministries, public institutions and industry organizations, including the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, Ministry of Employment and Labor, Gyeonggi Province, Construction Association of Korea, and Korea Specialty Contractors Association.</p>
