This premier exhibition series acts as a dynamic marketplace where the entire supply chain gathers to explore, learn, and transact. Attendance is often free, encouraging high participation from professionals looking to enhance their skills and source the best products.
The event’s core value lies in offering attendees a hands-on opportunity to engage directly with the latest product innovations and technological advancements. Visitors can expect to find comprehensive showcases covering everything from gas heating systems, pipes, fittings, valves, and controls, to the latest low-carbon heating solutions like heat pumps and electric radiators, ensuring they are prepared for the future direction of the industry. Exhibitors often include major brands who leverage PHEX as the ideal platform to launch new product lines.
Beyond the exhibition stands, PHEX supports professional development through critical educational content. Free seminars and dedicated training sessions are regularly provided, helping professionals navigate current regulations, master best-practice installation techniques, and stay informed on vital topics such as gas safety. The social aspect is equally important; attendees can network, enjoy giveaways, receive exclusive show-only discounts, and socialize with like-minded members of the trade.
