The National Homebuilding & Renovating Show 2025 at the NEC Birmingham was a resounding success, and Made For Trade was right in the thick of it! From the 20th to 23rd of March 2025, we joined over 380 exhibitors showcasing the industry’s most advanced products, and we were thrilled by the buzz and excitement.
The show itself had an impressive 8% increase in show footfall and was packed with homeowners and industry experts all eager to explore and find the latest industry innovations. Our Korniche stand was a hive of activity, featuring:
- The New Cortizo 4700 Sliding Patio Door Featuring Korniche Technology: With enhanced Korniche features, this new product drew significant attention for its sleek design and superior functionality.
- The Korniche Flat Glass Rooflight: Launched in 2024, this rooflight has the ability to flood spaces with natural light and easily replicable glass unit.
- The Award-Winning Korniche Bifold Door: A proven favourite, our bifold door continues to impress with its smooth operation and robust construction.
- The Industry-Leading Korniche Roof Lantern: Renowned for its quality and design, the roof lantern remained a focal point for those seeking a premium solution for bringing in more natural light into the home.

Experts on Stand
Our team, included Managing Director Bradley Gaunt, Commercial Director Chris Wann, Head of Sales & Operations Mike Robinson, Head of Business Development Leigh Greenwood, Sales Team Manager Kevin Bell, and Marketing Manager Ian Bousfield, who were on hand to provide expert advice and answer questions. The opportunity to get up close, touch, and experience our products was invaluable for visitors.
Ian Bousfield, summed up the experience perfectly: “We’ve wrapped up a hugely successful National Homebuilding & Renovating Show 2025 at the NEC! The energy throughout the weekend was fantastic, with an outstanding turnout of trade professionals, self-builders, and homeowners. Year after year, this event continues to be a prime opportunity for showcasing the Korniche brand, and this year was no exception. With the halls packed and visitor engagement at an all-time high, we were thrilled to see so much enthusiasm for products. The interest in Korniche roof lanterns, bi-folding doors, sliders and flat glass rooflights reinforces the brand’s strong position in the market. Following this continued success, we’re already gearing up for the next big event, the London Homebuilding & Renovating Show this September. We look forward to building on this momentum, connecting with even more industry professionals and homeowners, and showcasing why Korniche remains the go-to choice for premium aluminium glazing solutions. See you in London!”
