Timber Expo is a dynamic event designed to bring the timber industry together under one roof.
More than 4,000 visitors, including architects, engineers, contractors and local authorities, attended Timber Expo 2011.
Exhibitors and visitors have hailed the 2011 show as an outstanding success, showcasing a sector which has embraced new technologies, new products and new ways of bringing solutions to market efficiently and cost-effectively.
Timber Expo 2012 will be taking place at the Ricoh Arena in Coventry on the 25 & 26 September 2012.
The 2012 show will reveal the widest and most comprehensive display of applications for timber within the built environment. It is and will remain to be the UK's leading event for the timber industry informing and inspiring by addressing the needs of today and mapping out the challenges of tomorrow.
When we first heard that Timber Expo was going to be a very focused show, we felt it was the event we needed to be at to showcase the learning and innovations that we have generated in the last 6 years. It has been a great event and the footfall has been fantastic. We feel this is one of the better events in the UK for showcasing our business in.

I think we have been very pleased overall - there are a lot of other events going on here and a lot of customers in terms of specifiers, engineers and architects as well as the trade customers you would expect to see.

The running of the show has been excellent, the organisation from the team we found has been great, everybody has been really helpful. The whole process for us has been relatively straight forward and we have thoroughly enjoyed it. The show has been excellent, we have had a great number of visitors and some quality leads, which is the purpose of us coming to an event like this.

I wish I had more time at the show than I had allocated myself! Will not make that mistake next year!

2011 Timber Expo generated a lot of high quality leads from people who are genuinely interested in timber and we have received a lot of enquiries. We are so pleased with it we have taken an extra 50% increase in space. We feel it is important for James Lathams to be at Timber Expo next year and we are looking forward to it already.
Excellent show. Focussed on timber and fixings, so almost every stand had something of interest.

I have to say in terms of the organisation and everything pre-show has been fantastic, lots of opportunities and assistance to help us get to our customers and generate that all important footfall. Our initial feedback is it is just the right target audience - a mix of existing and new customers. All in all it has been a very successful show for us and we are really pleased.
