The British Institute of Fitted Interiors Specialists (BIFIS) launched in 2006 and is the UK’s first and only not-for-profit organisation dedicated to the fitted interiors sector.
They represent thousands specialist tradespeople and installation businesses nationwide, together with some of the world’s most prominent manufacturers, suppliers and retailers of fitted interiors products. As a not-for-profit organisation, we rely on our registered members and corporate sponsors to fund our work.
The conference will take place in the Piazza Suites at the NEC from 9am, with breakout sessions hosted in the BIFIS Village inside InstallerSHOW itself, giving full access to all that the event has to offer.
The event will welcome 300+ delegates and will address the key challenges and areas of opportunity for industry, with contributions from an impressive line-up of speakers.
The BIFIS Annual Conference 2026 will provide an opportunity for business leaders to come together to discuss and debate the macro and micro matters impacting the future of the industry, as well as hearing from industry experts and national policymakers.
There will also be curated theatre sessions held in the Installer Kitchens & Bathrooms area of the show.
“Both the BIFIS Conference and our annual Awards have enjoyed tremendous growth and success in Westminster in recent years. In order tocontinue on that trajectory, we have decided to centralise these two important dates in our calendar to not only capitalise on our great relationship with Lyrical Communications but also recognising the significance of InstallerSHOW to our stakeholders and communities. This means a change of location to Birmingham and becoming a summer event which will believe will make both events more accessible for our audiences.”
“This is great news for InstallerSHOW and the BIFIS and, most importantly, for the kitchens and bathrooms space as a whole. Both Installer Kitchens & Bathrooms and the BIFIS Conference and Awards, which InstallerSHOW has supported for a number of years, have become fixtures in the K&B calendar. Bringing them together at the NEC is a natural fit which will give everyone in the sector the opportunity to experience the best the industry has to offer.”
