Reflecting the broad interest across the sector, the show featured significant focus on UPVC, timber, glass, smart technology, roofing, and hardware. The networking-rich Late Night Wednesday event returned with increased attendance, fostering vital business connections in a more informal setting.

Visitors represented a comprehensive cross-section of the fenestration supply chain, including installers, fabricators, manufacturers, architects, specifiers, and merchants. The audience profile and increasing interest in UPVC, timber, and glass segments provide exciting opportunities to expand even further in the next edition.
