2026 Organisers Statement
The content at Surfex 2026 was designed to continue to attract high numbers of technical attendees and to encourage face-to-face and business discussions, where the emphasis was on technology. This is particularly important with the industry needing to meet, restart stalled projects and start working on future projects

OverĀ 1,000 visitors passed through the doors of Coventry Building Society Arena for Surfex 2026, of which 52% were visiting for the first time. They came to find new ideas, answers to technical challenges and source information for immediate use in the working environment.
From an exhibitor viewpoint, it is encouraging to see that of the attendees surveyed 77% had purchasing responsibility or influence, and 52% were involved in the development/ formulation, production/ manufacturing or the purchasing or buying of products for their company.
