Creative thinking comes to the surface

Creative thinking comes to the surface

Forming a notable feature of UKCW (UK Construction Week) the Surface & Materials Show presents a vital opportunity to keep up to date with all the functional and aesthetic advantages of today’s products. Whether actively specifying for floors, walls, working surfaces or ceilings, or whether simply fascinated by invention and seeking fresh inspiration, the Surface & Materials Show is the place to be, come October 18 -20.

From practical solutions and advice (such as how best to design and install the right flooring), to investigations into material properties and performance, the event will allow visitors to enhance their knowledge of the surfaces market, while also exploring a whole world of forward-looking construction solutions  – right next door.

A full programme of CPDs and discussions will keep the issues lively and current, while a full-house of high quality exhibitors will be on hand to engage with visitor’s interests and enquiries. The latest in sustainable products and practices will be presented – and opportunities to network and socialise will be abundant (not least at UKCW’s hugely popular Beer Festival which returns with the event to the NEC for the second year!)

Surface & Materials Hub:
The central feature at the Surface & Materials Show will display a curated selection of the latest products for visitors to experience first-hand. Products chosen will be at the cutting edge of the industry, ranging in applications from cladding to floor coverings.

Flooring Workshop (FITA):
In conjunction with the Flooring Industry Training Association, leading Master Fitters have been recruited for informative presentations covering all areas of contract flooring, including wood, carpet, vinyl, laminate, tools and accessories.

Exhibitors:
The Surface & Materials Show will host over 1,500 sqm of exhibition stands featuring both established and emerging brands within the industry - from external cladding and paving to internal flooring, anti-bacterial work surfaces and elegant wall-treatments to stylish sound insulation.

Exhibitors include: CED Ltd, Soundspace Solutions, Panel Stone UK, Bellgrove Ceramics, Alpi spa, Panaget, Alusid, British Laminate Fabricators Association, Omek Enterprise and Slingshot Global. Returning to the show are Johnson Tiles and FunderMax:
