Timber Framed House Feature for W6 - 19/04/2006

Benfield ATT is to supply a two-storey timber framed building as a major feature at the W6 Working with Wood exhibition (NEC 8-11 October 2006).


The house exhibit will have a partly exposed structure to show the nature of this ever more popular method of construction. Equally the full possibilities of finished timber building products will be evident, with a fully furnished “Timber Home” being the theme.

W6 Exhibition


Kelvin Godhard of Benfield ATT commented, “It is very clear that W6 will provide a great showcase for timber frame building technology, especially given the presence of the machinery industry and the joinery sector. We are delighted to see one of our timber frame homes featuring in this event, and I know our architect has some brilliant ideas – we’re going to make it worth a visit


The house will be of interest to designers and architects, as well as construction and furniture manufacturing areas of W6’s expected 18,000 audience in October.


Timber frame is expected to be a significant talking point in the NEC halls with joinery firms likely to use the event to see the latest developments in machinery.Exhibitors at the show will be given first opportunity of sponsoring the timber frame features along with more traditional joinery aspects to the house.


On the furniture production side there is a rare opportunity for visiting furniture manufacturers to see finished products installed into a location, giving exhibiting innovative components suppliers the chance to show how their product looks and performs in situ.


Benfield ATT is expected to announce the concept architectural design by June 2006.Exhibitors wishing to register an interest in sponsorship opportunities linked to this feature should call W6 on 01629 826999 or e-mail sale@w6exhibition.com
