Registration has now opened for the biggest event in the UK bed industry, with the Bed Show just around the corner.
Organised by the National Bed Federation (NBF), the Bed Show returns to Telford International Centre on 22nd and 23rd September. Now in its 37th year, the exhibition is the perfect place for those in the business of bed making to discover the latest designs and technologies from world-class component, filling and service suppliers to the industry.
The NBF Bed Industry Awards have also just opened, and, with winners being crowned on the first night of the show, attendees can see, feel and learn firsthand which suppliers and their wares have been crowned the cream of the crop.
Back to the exhibition itself, the Supplier Zone – a “show within a show” – is dedicated to highlighting the businesses at the heart of the industry. All purchasing managers for bed manufacturers and those who run mattress production units should make the Supplier Zone in hall 2 their first port of call at the Bed Show.
From fabrics and foams to natural fibres, springs and bespoke print solutions, there is something for everyone. This year’s exhibitors offering innovative products, premium materials, and sustainability-forward solutions include new member AW Hainsworth, plus Apropa, CPS Group, Enkev UK, Handy, John Cotton Nonwovens, Maes Mattress Tickings, Spinks, Vita Cellular Foams UK, and WE Rawson.
Working with NBF supplier members gives bed manufacturers peace of mind – they know exactly what is required to ensure their products remain compliant. The NBF keeps its supplier members informed on the latest standards and regulations through its Code of Practice, dedicated sustainability support and regular communications. Several supplier members have also chosen to be audited to give further assurance to their customers.
Visitors return year after year to engage with the unique, vibrant mix of bed manufacturers and components, fillings and service suppliers to the British and Irish bed sector.
Joining the suppliers is a cohort of some of the biggest names in bed manufacturing, plus many smaller niche brands. Across three halls, visitors can expect to see the likes of Adjust-A-Bed, Carpenter, GNG Group, Harrison Spinks, Highgrove, Millbrook, Sealy UK, Shire Beds, Sleepeezee and Silentnight, plus many more.
The coveted Bed Industry Awards celebrate outstanding businesses across the supply, manufacturing, and retail sectors over the past 12 months. A VIP host will reveal the coveted Component Product of the Year and Supplier of the Year at the awards ceremony and gala dinner on 22 September, and tickets will be available to purchase very soon.
Visitors will enjoy complimentary parking, entry, refreshment vouchers and Wi-Fi. Find further information and register now via the Bed Show website - www.bedshow.co.uk.
