Team ‘Smartlift UK’ Will Be Heading To The Fit Show This May

After a couple of challenging years where inside exhibitions have been prohibited due to the pandemic, Central Platform Services are once again proud to be exhibiting the latest designs in glass lifting technology from Smartlift at the new 2022 FIT Show.

This long-awaited exhibition will take place from the 10th to the 12th May 2022 at the National Exhibition Centre (NEC) Birmingham. The show will be of serious interest to everyone involved in the glass and glazing industry.

About The FIT Show Exhibition

The FIT Show is the largest exhibition of its kind in the UK. Glass manufacturers, glazing companies, glass lifting services and other industry suppliers from around the globe attend the show to exhibit their latest innovations in glass and glazing products and technologies.

The FIT show is a biennial event, last held in 2019 with 300 exhibitors and over 10,000 visitors. This year is sure to be a bumper year with the previous two shows having been cancelled due to the pandemic.

Come & See Us At Stand 39 (Smartlift / Central Platform Services Ltd)

This year we have opted for a larger open stand (stand 39) in the ‘Visit Glass Area’ of the hall. This will allow our visitors comfortable access to freely walk around our display of glazing robots with enough space for a restrictive demonstration from one of our glass lifting experts.

Our friendly, expert team will be at hand to answer any questions about us and our glass lifting machinery and can even arrange on-site, one to one demonstrations for the days and weeks after the show.

Here is what Liam Buckley, Smartlift Sales Executive North & Ireland at CPSLift.com had to say about this year’s show:

“This is going to be my first rodeo at the FIT Show and I’m really looking forward to it. I have heard nothing but positive things about the event and it will be the perfect opportunity to show off the range of incredible glass lifting machines from Smartlift.

I’d like to thank John Burton for investing in the event and allowing me to get myself known within the industry by meeting new connections and existing clients. I look forward to meeting each and everyone.”
