Design for Healthcare Environments Ireland – Exhibiting Information

Exhibit at Design for Healthcare Environments Ireland

29–30 September 2026 | RDS, Dublin

Design for Healthcare Environments Ireland (DHEI) will bring together decision-makers responsible for the design, refurbishment and equipping of mental health, intellectual disability and autism environments across Ireland.

As a specialist Conference & Exhibition, DHEI offers a focused, commercially relevant platform to engage directly with those shaping healthcare infrastructure investment and environmental standards.

This is the first dedicated Irish event serving this specialist sector.

Why Exhibit?

DHEI is designed to connect manufacturers, service providers and design specialists with a highly targeted audience actively involved in:

  • New-build healthcare developments
  • Refurbishment and modernisation projects
  • Residential and community-based care settings
  • Safety and regulatory compliance upgrades
  • Long-term capital planning

The exhibition is carefully curated to ensure relevance, quality of audience and meaningful engagement and will prioritise practical, specification-ready solutions aligned with Irish service needs – including anti-ligature products, sensory-informed design, durable residential fittings, security solutions and compliant building materials.

The Audience You Will Meet

Exhibitors will connect with professionals across:

Clinical & Care Leadership

  • Mental health consultants and service leads
  • Intellectual disability and autism specialists
  • CAMHS representatives
  • Lived experience experts
  • Community providers

Estates, Capital & Design

  • HSE estates and facilities teams
  • Capital project and commissioning leads
  • Architects and healthcare designers
  • Project managers and contractors

Strategy & Oversight

  • Senior healthcare leadership
  • Regulators and policy stakeholders
  • Researchers and academics

The event is being developed in response to identified demand from Irish healthcare leaders seeking improved access to specialist suppliers, innovative products and compliant solutions.

A Market Opportunity

Ireland is entering a significant period of healthcare infrastructure investment under the National Development Plan, with emphasis on:

  • Community-based care models
  • Intellectual disability residential developments
  • Modernisation of existing mental health units
  • Enhanced environmental compliance standards

DHEI provides a structured route for suppliers – both Irish and UK-based –  to engage directly with this market in one setting across two days.

Designed for Engagement

The exhibition will run alongside a multidisciplinary conference programme grounded in practical learning and real-world case studies. This drives high-value visitor engagement, with delegates actively seeking solutions to identified challenges.

Suppliers are strongly encouraged to participate in demonstrative sessions and to offer knowledge-sharing opportunities as part of the Conference to strengthen visibility, credibility and enhance the attendee value in engaging. This opportunity is included free of charge in all stand packages.

The year-one format will be commercially focused and tightly curated to ensure quality of audience and engagement. Exhibition and vehicle space is therefore limited, in order to maintain quality and relevance.
