Flutter: RenderBox was not laid out

The problem is that you are placing the ListView inside a Column/Row. The text in the exception gives a good explanation of the error.

To avoid the error you need to provide a size to the ListView inside.

I propose you this code that uses an Expanded to inform the horizontal size (maximum available) and the SizedBox (Could be a Container) for the height:

    new Row(
      children: <Widget>[
        Expanded(
          child: SizedBox(
            height: 200.0,
            child: new ListView.builder(
              scrollDirection: Axis.horizontal,
              itemCount: products.length,
              itemBuilder: (BuildContext ctxt, int index) {
                return new Text(products[index]);
              },
            ),
          ),
        ),
        new IconButton(
          icon: Icon(Icons.remove_circle),
          onPressed: () {},
        ),
      ],
      mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceBetween,
    )
