All Systems Go for FIT Show 2025
It’ s all systems go for FIT Show 2025, which has seen a raft of brands sign up to exhibit for its 29 April- 1 May Birmingham NEC event in recent weeks.
» VISITORS WILL BE ABLE TO SEE A broad range of brands, products and services at the UK’ s only dedicated trade show for the window, door, flat glass, hardware, components and roofing industry.
Alongside increasing the footprint of the show by 30 %, organisers have delivered on increasing the representation of systems houses, something its post 2023 survey highlighted as an area exhibitors and visitors felt needed to be improved upon.
Systems houses set to exhibit at FIT Show this year include ALUK, Cortizo, Smart Systems, Exlabesa, Residence Collection, Aluplast and FIT Show stalwarts, Selecta Systems who have exhibited at every edition.
Speaking about the importance of FIT Show 2025, Mark Walker, marketing manager for Selecta Systems comments:“ FIT Show plays a big part in our overall marketing strategy. It’ s an event that we’ ve been part of since day one, having seen and experienced the real value and benefits of being part of FIT. Nothing beats face-to-face interaction, something we’ ve lost over the last few years, especially when you’ re demonstrating your latest products and innovations to the industry. People want to visualise, touch and immerse themselves in the overall experience and the FIT Show provides us with that opportunity, with a large industry specific audience at our disposal over the three days.
“ With some exciting new additions to our portfolio of products and services in the pipeline, we’ re looking forward to FIT Show 2025 with huge optimism and confidence. Not only will you see Selecta show off new additions to our hugely successful ADVANCE 70 System, but you will also see the launch of another set of innovative developments to our Connect customer portal. We are confident that the latest developments will be a game changer and set a new standard in how fabricators generate sales leads, manage sales and fabricate. FIT Show 2025 will be the year to Connect and # bepartofthefamily.”
Russell Yates, Managing Director at AluK, says:“ I’ ve always been a huge
supporter of the FIT Show – if you get your approach just right and really focus on the experience for visitors, it’ s where the magic happens. Of course, we’ ll be showcasing new products and service initiatives on our stand, but we’ ll also be using FIT to demonstrate to both new and existing customers why AluK is now such an exciting and rewarding systems company to partner with.
“ We’ ll be giving everyone who comes to the stand a taste of what it means to be an AluK customer, and we intend to create the kind of buzz around our brand that you can only get at a live event. We all know that fabricators and installers want to see more systems companies at FIT and, if my experience at previous shows is anything to go by, companies who aren’ t there will undoubtedly miss out.”
Andy Green, Selecta Systems sales director adds:“ FIT Show has always and continues to be an important part of the calendar year for Selecta. Not only do you get to see and exhibit the latest innovations within the industry, but FIT Show also presents you with the opportunity to meet with customers, potential clients and industry colleagues face-to-face in an engaging and relaxed
