Surface Design Show’s organisers have released a post-show report following the event’s 2024 edition, which took place in February at the Business Design Centre in Islington.
According to the report, visitor numbers were up 8%, with 6082 attendees in total. Among the visitors, an unsurprisingly large proportion (43%) were design professionals, while 27% of attendees were company owners/partners/CEOs, and a further 7% worked in sales and marketing. Some 84% of visitors stated they were involved in purchasing decisions, with 45% stating they were planning to make orders following the show.
In positive news for our sector, porcelain and ceramic tiles were the second most popular category of product on show in terms of visitor interest, beating out every other product category except “sustainable materials”.
