The countdown is on to all the variety and fascination of The Surface & Materials Show, the feast of colour, texture, pattern and high-performance finishes at UK Construction Week, which offers nine key exhibitions under one convenient roof.
There is much to discover from both leading names and emerging brands, and much to learn from an extensive programme of talks, demonstrations and CPDs.
Fascinating products to experience at the show range from elegant wallpaper in on-trend botanical themes from rising star Kit Miles Studio, to hi-tech grids for pergolas and ‘air walls’ by I-Mesh and woven wire solutions with a retro feel from Amron Associates. Innovators such as Pintark by Loco Design explore the use of texture in materials with beguiling coverings in leather and metal. For the best in exterior finishes look to Sant Anselmo and Flowcrete and for the glamour of metallic effects head to Ay yapi to discover SolideSignature.
Here’s a selection of the many innovative products and designs at this must-visit industry gathering:
Sant Anselmo’s high quality terracotta tiles include ranges ideal for exterior façades, as shown here in Corso Terra Dragwire Smoked, on the Celine building in Seoul, South Korea.
Kit Miles Studio’s Biophillia wallpaper design captures the majesty, complexity and beauty of plant life across the globe. Available in five colourways. Shown here in Jade / Pink
The innovation hub at the Surface & Materials show is curated by the experts at The Material Lab, who have chosen a variety of intriguing new materials to showcase at the exhibition.

Meanwhile, on the main stage at UKCW and three dedicated CPD hubs a key programme on building and fire safety will run.

Now in its third year, Surface & Materials will showcase the latest surface solutions for architects, interior designers, specifiers and industry professionals seeking a broad range of in¬novative and high-performance products.
