Widely recognised as the UK’s National Flooring Event, 2018 marks the 56th edition of the Flooring Show. This is a record performance for a B2B sector trade show, and one which has been enjoying a resurgence in visitor numbers and interest in recent years.
This year is no exception as the industry’s leading brands and suppliers from the UK and beyond turn out to support the three- day show, using the occasion to showcase new ranges across all types of flooring including carpet, laminate, LVT, wood, vinyl plus cork and grass for both the contract and retail markets.
MAKING CONNECTIONS
All the big names will be at the show, so you’ll cover the ground, and be able to meet the people behind the leading brands in just one visit.
Go ‘Best of British’ and find Cormar, Abingdon Flooring, Cavalier Carpets, Furlong Flooring, Interfloor, Distinctive Flooring and Karndean International who will all be in attendance.
From Europe, you can catch up with Dutch company Condor Carpets, H&V Carpets and Moduleo both from Belgium and newcomer Barth1873 from Germany.
NEW FOR 2018
With more than 50 new exhibitors at the show this year, make sure you allow enough time to meet some new faces and review their ranges and flooring offers.
“Performance, looks and correct installation continue to be key industry talking points,” says event manager Kane Thomas of Ocean Media Group, which bought the show last year.
“Investing time in meeting the people behind the brands and getting hands-on with the products makes specifying so much easier – you get a true sense of a product’s performance and the people too, so you can be confident in your choices when it really matters.”
