Exhibition pulls in
‘genuine business’
for installers
A team from Roof Assured by Sarnafil says the Homebuilding and
Renovating Show at Harrogate International Centre created ‘genuine
business’ enquiries for its network
of installers.
More than 10,000 visitors came through
the show’s doors to source new products,
get expert advice and browse the aisles of
the UK’s biggest self building and renovating event.
This was the fourth Homebuilding and
Renovating Show for Roof Assured this year
and will continue to be part of its events
schedule in 2016.
Charles Pierce, Head of Roof Assured,
said: “The Homebuilding and Renovating
Shows give us huge visibility and generate a
high level of interest with one of our target
audiences – the homebuilder and renovator.
They generate excellent enquiries from people with real projects on the go and create
genuine business enquiries for our network
of registered installers.”
Feedback from the team on the Roof Assured stand shows that the quality of leads
generated was a mix of current, future and
planning stage enquiries about flat roof
solutions. The stand team also enjoyed conversations with architects and surveyors.
Bob Newall, Business Development Manager, Roof Assured by Sarnafil, said: “Visitors to the stand have either heard about
the Sarnafil membrane from their architects
and come to learn more about the brand
and the membrane for themselves.
New guide offers
clarity and detail
A new specifiers guide has been
published by Sheerframe Ltd to provide
a handy and comprehensive product
specification reference source.

“For others, the single ply membrane is
still a relatively unknown technology and
they are all ears to hear about the credentials of the Sarnafil brand and see an installation demo. They are particularly interested
to hear about the company’s Swiss heritage
and the fact that some of its earliest roofs
are now over 50 years old.”
Tony Poole, also on the stand, added: “Exhibiting at the shows gives us a platform to
bridge the connection between the excellent
reputation of the Sika Sarnafil brand and
the Roof Assured flat roofing solution. The
installation demo always attracts attention
as it really demonstrates the expertise and
high performance of the Sarnafil single ply
membrane.”
