Update: Due to the sad news of the outbreak of the Coronavirus (covid-19) in the UK & around the world many UK gardening and landscaping shows have been cancelled for 2020. Please check if you are unsure
Trade shows 2020. Do you like to visit trade shows that showcase landscape, construction and paving products? Do you like to look at show gardens that have new and innovative garden and landscaping designs? Then why not look at the list of trade shows you could visit in 2020. You can gain many inspirational design ideas for your garden or landscape project.

If I can make the time, I love to visit trade shows. Especially if they are trade shows where you can look at paving, landscaping and other related products. I love to find new innovative products or a stand that has a product I’ve heard about or know exists but I’ve never seen it.
The best chance to see many products will be garden, home, landscape and outdoor living shows. Gardens, besides flowers and plants, need landscaping products of all shapes and sizes. So where better to see some fascinating products that compliment any garden.
You may also find garden & landscaping competitions that are often held at some trade shows. 2020 looks like being a good year to see show large and small gardens as they are very popular with attendees. They can give you great inspiration for your garden spaces. Most big events showcase landscape and paving products in some way.

Specialist Trade Shows
Surfex
The Surfex trade show is held every 2 years. For coating, sealants and sealers amongst other coatings. Unless your involved directly with manufacturing coating industry you probably wont recognize many of these companies. But if you look into some of the products that they supply and some of their brands you may become aware. If you are inquisitive and you are looking to discover new coatings then this is a show well worth visiting.

Trade shows have more than good products on show
One of the great things about trade shows besides discovering new ideas & products is finding answers to questions about new opportunity direct from the manufacturers. Trades stands will have representatives of the company that are only to keep to show off their products. They will have a wealth of knowledge of their landscaping & gardening products that they will love sharing with you. You can pick their brains of all the benefits and any pressing questions you may have.
Most landscaping and paving products are only stocked in one or two builders yards. IE. Jewsons, Keyline. So you rarely do you get a selection of lots of competitive products under one roof. But you do at trade shows with paving & landscaping products.
If you know of any good trade shows that showcase paving & landscape products please let us know.
