2019 is going to be an exciting year for trade fairs as far as Tinby is concerned - one in which we hope to meet not only many of our current clients, but also a lot of potential new customers from around the world. Perhaps that includes you? We are only exhibiting at one trade fair this year, but in addition to that, our sales team will be visiting a number of other trade fairs to keep up-to-date on new trends, make new contacts, and follow up on interesting leads. These will mainly be the key trade shows in the fields of furniture design, composite and insulation,and the wind turbine industry. Our Sales Engineer, Michael Lind, has already been to Sweden where he visited the Stockholm Furniture & Light Fair in early February - and our sales team are heading to Paris from 12-14 March to participate in the JEC World Composite Show 2019.
In 2019, Tinby will attend the following trade shows - we hope to see you there!

There is no doubt that Danish design has an important role to play on the Scandinavian design scene, where Tinby, as a major player, is committed to making a significant contribution to the design and manufacture of our clients' many exciting ranges of furniture.
