Carl F Groupco To Sponsor Glazing Summit For Third Consecutive Year

Independent hardware distributor Carl F Groupco has announced it is to sponsor the Glazing Summit for the third consecutive year.

John Crittenden, managing director of Carl F Groupco, said: “We are delighted to be sponsoring the Glazing Summit again this year. The event attracts an extremely high calibre of people from across the industry because it’s a great opportunity to discuss the issues that matter in a safe space.”

This year’s Glazing Summit will be held on 12 October at the Edgbaston Stadium and Conference Centre, Birmingham. It will be the industry’s biggest ever conference and will attract over 400 leaders from across the glass and glazing industry with combined UK sales of over £2 billion.

John commented: “From tackling the supply-chain crisis and labour shortages to threats from upcoming regulatory changes, the industry is facing unprecedented challenge post-Brexit and postpandemic. The safe space of the Glazing Summit is the perfect opportunity to map out the future of the industry.”

Andrew Scott, founder of the Glazing Summit, said: “The Glazing Summit aims to inform, inspire and raise standards across the fenestration industry, and it is great to have a worldclass company such as Carl F Groupco share these values and support this year’s Conference.”

The day will consider seven major industry topics and attendees will hear from 24 expert speakers. It ends with a Gala Dinner, which provides the perfect finish to a day of discussion and debate. John said: “We’ve attended the Glazing Summit every year since 2018 so we know first-hand know how valuable the sessions are. I have no hesitation in saying it will be the same again this year.” www.carlfgroupco.co.uk
