kbbreview will once again publish a special bonus issue of its magazine for InstallerSHOW 2026, which will be available exclusively for visitors to the event next week.
Fittingly, the cover feature of this year’s InstallerSHOW edition explores the relationship between KBB installers and retailers, delving deep into the complaints that designers and studios say they have about fitters. The issue’s analysis feature will discuss what their issues actually are, whether those concerns are genuinely justified, and explore how retailers and installers can work together to overcome them.
Also inside this year’s bonus magazine, we catch up with Trades United founder Shoaib Awan to hear about the impressive progress he’s made in combating tool theft over the last year. The bonus issue also has an exclusive interview with Mark Millar, The IPG’s brand ambassador, about his work championing showrooms and merchants all around the country.
Aside from all of that, the issue is also full of opinion pieces and business advice articles, as well as a handy 11-page guide to this year’s InstallerSHOW events and exhibitors.
Visitors can pick up a copy of the special edition kbbreview Magazine at the entrance to the Installer Kitchens and Bathrooms area of InstallerSHOW, which is taking place June 23 – 25 at the NEC Birmingham.
Managing editor of kbbreview, Andrew Davies, said: “The bonus InstallerSHOW issue of kbbreview has become something of a tradition now, and we’re excited to once again be bringing out another edition of the magazine for show visitors. As always, this year’s issue is full of viewpoints from people all across the industry as well as info that visitors will find incredibly useful, like a handy exhibitor list and map, so it’s well worth picking up at the door!”
The 2026 InstallerSHOW issue of kbbreview is once again being sponsored by bathroom supplier hib, who are also exhibiting at this year’s event.
