Why attend?
If you’re on site or managing projects, you’re often answering client questions, recommending finishes, problem-solving on the fly and getting put in the designers seat whether you want to or not. This event is designed to make product discovery easier for time poor trades. It can be hard to keep up with what’s new, what’s changed and what’s no longer available in architectural products but you’ll be able to do that in one place in one morning at Residium’s Trade Discovery Breakfast.
We have 40+ showrooms represented by some of the best technical product experts in the country, so come and meet them. Our showrooms cover everything from kitchen, bathroom, decorative finishes, landscaping, heating & cooling, home technology and more.
