2026 set to be FCE’s ‘biggest year yet’

Furniture Component Expo is set for its ‘biggest year yet,’ according to organiser BFA.

The event’s mix of full supply chain approach, more than 70 companies showcasing their products and services, awards, seminars and networking opportunities is set to attract buyers from the UK and overseas.

Sponsored by BeA Group and Carpenter, with Blum UK sponsoring the Innovation Trail, the show takes place at Telford International Centre on 11-12 March.

‘Indications at this stage are pointing to our biggest year to date for the event, which fills a much-needed gap for the industry. This year we are also broadening the scope to include the kitchen and bathroom sector, contract furniture and interiors sector. FCE is a fantastic opportunity to connect with businesses across supply chains, discover new products and services and network with like-minded people within the sector,’ says Phil Spademan, BFA md.

‘The packed seminar programme will offer insight from expert speakers on key topics with some interesting panel discussions and workshops lined up too. For visitors looking for the next big idea that could revolutionise their business, the debut of the Innovation Trail will shine a spotlight on those with something new to share.’

This is a curated showcase of products and services that are less than 18 months old and have not been seen at the FCE before. It features products selected for demonstrating real innovation that meets industry needs.

The BFA’s Future of Furniture Awards will also be presented at FCE, recognising businesses that are blazing a trail across Sustainability, ESG Reporting and Education with one individual named Sustainability Champion.
