Get ready for FIT

The FIT Show 2025 is fast approaching, and if you're a specifier, contractor, architect, or construction professional focused on windows, doors, roofing and building envelope solutions, this is the unmissable event of the year. 

Taking place at the NEC Birmingham from 29 April to 1 May 2025, the FIT Show is a leading UK trade event for the window, door, flat glass, hardware, components and roofing industries. As a specifier, this event is the ultimate opportunity to explore cutting-edge solutions for your commercial and domestic projects – from innovative windows and doors to energy-efficient roofing systems, rooflights, lanterns, fascias, soffits and much more. 

A must-see event for specifiers 

As demand grows for energy-efficient and easily installable products, the FIT Show is the ideal platform to connect with suppliers, explore the latest innovations, and stay ahead of emerging trends in roofing and fenestration solutions. Visitors can discover innovative window and door products, explore lightweight roofing systems, advanced rooflights, lanterns, and facades from industry leaders such as Ultraframe, SupaLite, Made For Trade, Brett Martin, and First Glass Roofs. 

The Installer Demo Zone, sponsored by Smart Systems, will showcase real-time installations of windows and doors – from the construction of a timber window with the Timber Joinery Network through to sliding doors and lantern roofs with brands including ALUK, Brett Martin and Made for Trade. Visitors can gain insight into best practices, fixing techniques, and compliance to ensure quality in your own projects. 

You can also stay up to date on tools, fixings and accessories with specialist tools that improve efficiency, reduce installation time, and ensure durability for your projects.  

FIT Show also helps you stay ahead of regulatory and sustainability trends with CPD-certified learning on the latest updates to Part L regulations, building compliance, sustainability, and thermal efficiency, helping you stay compliant and future-proof your designs.
