InstallerSCOTLAND is heading back to the SEC on 12 September 2019

News

Installer and SNIPEF are delighted to announce they have joined forces to co-produce InstallerSCOTLAND at the SEC in Glasgow on 12 September 2019.

This one-day plumbing and heating trade show aims to give Scottish tradespeople a unique day out with valuable face-to-face interaction with manufacturers from across the industry.

“Installer is delighted to partner with SNIPEF on this event,” said Installer Managing Director Eoin McManus.

“SNIPEF is well placed to work with us in shaping a lasting trade show in Scotland. Their insight into this unique market will ensure we develop an event we know Scottish plumbing and heating engineers want.

“When InstallerSCOTLAND last came to the SEC in 2017 – 82% thought it was worth attending – so clearly installers see the importance of an exhibition like this,” he said.

Commenting of the partnership with Installer, SNIPEF CEO Fiona Hodgson said: “While the plumbing and heating industry in Scotland shares many traits with the rest of the UK, it’s a unique market and one SNIPEF has been part of for nearly 100 years.

“Installer understands how to create a fantastic trade show that delivers for both exhibitors and attendees alike, so we’re excited to partner with them to create an event tailored for Scotland.”

InstallerSCOTLAND – a one-day pop-up plumbing and heating trade show – will take place at the SEC in Glasgow on September 12, 2019. The show will feature many of the industry’s leading manufacturers and suppliers and will offer visitors lots of opportunities to get hands-on with the latest products and come face-to-face with the people who develop them.

Watch 🎥 The Heating Installer Awards winner is named live on stage at Installer2018

News

With only a few days to go until the deadline, time is quickly running out to enter this year’s Heating Installer Awards. As well as the coveted title and opportunity to boost your reputation and grow your business, there are thousands of pounds of money-can’t-buy prizes up for grabs including a trip to Denmark to visit Danfoss HQ.

Now in its fourth year, the industry famous Heating Installer Awards was established to celebrate the achievements and raise the credibility of plumbers and heating installers who deliver top quality work and excellent customer service on a daily basis, showcasing the superstars of the industry who often go unnoticed.

Check out our video from Installer2018 last year featuring Shaun Scott, as well as 2017 winner Peter Booth, to see what it’s all about:

The plumbing and heating industry is perceived by many as dogged by ‘cowboy’ tradesmen – but those working in the sector know this couldn’t be further from the truth. Every day, thousands of installers across the country work to provide tailored, modern and energy-efficient heating solutions for customers, which improve quality of life, drive down energy costs and create warm homes for UK families.

Supported by renowned organisations from across the heating industry including Danfoss, Geberit, Glow-worm, Polypipe and Stelrad, and media partnered with Installer, the aim of the awards is to raise standards even higher, unveiling the true ambassadors of the world’s greatest heating and plumbing industry. Once entries close, an expert panel of judges made up of industry professionals, will meet in March and decide the 11 regional finalists. The judges’ scores for the finalists will then be carried forward to the next round, which, for the first time, will also include a peer-reviewed, response-to-scenario technical challenge set by last year’s champion Shaun Scott. The finalists’ scores for this, together with a public vote and judges’ scores, will decide the national winner. The lucky winner will be announced on 8th May at Installer2019 (register now for your free tickets), where Shaun will hand over his title.

Entries close on 8th February so submit your entry today and it could be you walking away with the crown come May! Well, not technically a crown, but a trophy, a trip to Denmark, £1000’s worth Stelrad store credit, an Apple iWatch, a Nextbase 412GW dash cam and a Glow-worm branded workwear and tools package…not to mention bragging rights!

Entry is free and simple, with just four questions to answer, so what have you got to lose? To hear more about the awards, follow @HIAwards on Twitter or find search for Heating Installer Awards over on Facebook.

Installer2018 scoops coveted ‘Best Trade Show’ award

News ,

Installer2018 has been named Best Trade Show by the EN Indy Awards, a brand new awards scheme dedicated to recognising the achievements of independently organised shows.

The competition was tough, but the expert panel of judges were impressed that the Installer Shows had established themselves as must-attend events for heating and plumbing engineers, and revitalised trade shows in the industry.

Launched in May 2015, the Installer Shows feature more than 100 leading manufacturers who showcase everything from boilers to showers (and pretty much every product in between).

The events give engineers the chance to get hands-on with the latest products on the market – plus get involved with the huge selection of giveaways, special offers, and interactive games and challenges that test knowledge, ability, skill and are great fun.

“We are absolutely thrilled with the win,” said Eoin McManus, Installer Magazine’s Managing Director.

“The independent research we do after all of our shows proves that we stage excellent events that visitors want to go to because they get so much out of the experience.

“We’re a tight-knit but effective team that work on both the magazine and our trade shows, and I couldn’t be happier that all of our hard work has been recognised and rewarded.

“This is a huge achievement, not only for us but for all our exhibitors, who have contributed so much to this success.  I can’t wait to see everyone at the Ricoh for Installer2019 in May.”

Installer2019 is staged at the Ricoh Arena from the 7-9 May. Installers will be able to get their free tickets when registration goes live in December, from www.installershow.com.

If you’re interested in exhibiting at Installer2019, please phone Richie Martin on 01722 585850 or email rmartin@installermagazine.co.uk.

Installer2017 is biggest exhibition yet

News

With more exhibitors and more installers than previous years, Installer2017 proved to be a record-breaking return to the Ricoh.

Having been established for two years, the challenge for Installer2017 was to be bigger and better than the previous events – and not just in terms of pure numbers. Not content to simply recreate the same trade show year-on-year, the latest edition of the exhibition featured a number of new features – some in collaboration with exhibitor partners – as a way of creating more worth and value to its visitors.

One such new additional was InstallerWORKS. Having found that a traditional seminar approach lacked the installer/exhibitor interaction that is a cornerstone of the Installer event focus, InstallerWORKS was created to bring a live demonstration area onto the show floor where visitors could be introduced to new skills – such as wet room and underfloor heating installation.

Alongside the new features, Installer2017 was also able to enhance existing aspects of the show to offer visitors far more in terms of information, product and special show offers – for example, Plumb Center’s Trading Zone offered special show deals for over 20 brands this year, while Graham Plumbers’ Merchant created a CustomerF1rst Area that highlighted to visitors the breadth of its offering – and not just in terms of products.

With astounding special offers and giveaways that saw visitors leaving with bags full of goodies, interactive stands to challenge brains and brawn alike, and the odd celebrity appearance, Installer2017 delivered a worthwhile visitor experience and cemented its position on the calendar of many installers as a must-visit show in the future.

What they said

“Bristan had yet another successful year at Installer. The show had a real buzz and it was great to engage and educate new and existing customers on our product features.”
Lisa Malin, Campaign Manager, Trade Channel at Bristan

@michealteal72

“We’ve never failed to gain interest in our product at any exhibition, but Installer2017 surpassed all of our expectations; strong visitor footfall embraced by an entertaining vibe, for both visitors and exhibitors alike, created a very enjoyable, productive and profitable three days.”
Gary Fisher, Buteline
