P&D Show Industry Verdict – Fantastic!

With visitor numbers up 20% to record levels and more exhibitors than ever before, the 2013 National Painting and Decorating Show is being applauded by the industry as the most successful in its 19 year history.

The show, which took over two packed days in November at the Ricoh Arena in Coventry, saw nearly 3000 professional painter and decorators, stockist and specifiers travel from across the UK and beyond to see the very latest the industry has to offer, take advantage of great show only deals and get up-to-date with the all that’s happening in paints, application tools, work ware, transport and ancillary products.

The reaction from exhibitors has been overwhelming with, for example, Dulux Decorating Centre saying “Great show, there was a great buzz around our stand. Looking forward to next year!!“. While Paul Waller of TOR Coatings commented that the show “provided a fantastic and unique platform for launching key new products. it is always the first thing we factor into our annual Marketing plan.”
