Product Gallery


Originally created through a link with the Architectural Association, our Product Gallery is now established as London's only permanent exhibition where manufacturers of contemporary, innovative and eco friendly products can be exposed to our diverse professional audience of key specifiers.

It showcases a richness and diversity of products and materials from both home and overseas capable of embracing all aspects of architecture and construction from external products to internal finishes and fittings.

The Building Centre is the chosen location for over 80 selected companies who seek a marketing advantage of showcasing their products to over 2,000 visitors that attend the centre each week.

Our location provides for many exhibitors a cost effective solution to having a central London showroom serviced by our team of Information Staff.

All our exhibitors can benefit from the significant networking opportunities provided through the diverse range of Breakfast Talks, Seminars and events. These are now a regular feature of our joint programme with New London Architecture dealing with all major issues concerning the built environment.

How to Exhibit

Attracting some 2000 visitors every week, The Building Centre's Product Exhibition, contained on three floors, has always been the main focus of interest and is currently supported by 140 manufacturers.

Products on show can be seen from a wide range of design elements including structural, heating and ventilation, interiors and lighting from both UK and overseas companies - all products that architects and designers want to view and specify for function, colour, shape, size and texture in one central location. All exhibitions are supported with technical information at the Information Desk.

Overseas Exhibitions

As an Accredited Trade Organisation supported by UK Trade and Investment, The Building Centre along with Construction Products Association have secured valuable funding from UK Trade & Investment to assist eligible building material producers to penetrate overseas markets. This is achieved through exhibitions which are recognised market leaders in their sector attracting a high level of trade visitors.

We have appointed Building Exhibitions Management, who have been involved in the organisation of UK groups at overseas exhibitions for over 35 years, to coordinate attendance at these events. Their pre-show and on-site support is tailored to suit individual requirements. With each company's market focus changing at such a fast rate they are well positioned to react to a sudden change in a company's market interest.

Knowledge of each event allows us to pre-determine the best possible overall presence at the show. A long standing relationship with show organisers means we are also able to ensure that companies are located in prime locations in the right sector, thus maximising their attendance and ensuring the highest possible return on their exhibition investment.
