The final edition of The Big Promotional Trade Shows for 2024 wrapped up on a high note at the Sheraton Skyline Hotel, Heathrow, drawing visitors from across London and the South East. The event was bustling from start to finish, with a great turnout and lots of interest in the latest innovations across the promotional merchandise industry.
Our very own Ben represented Crystal Galleries at the show, taking part in the day’s activities and even presenting awards to some of the standout exhibitors. Here’s a quick recap of the highlights:
Best Stand Award went to Headwear UK, recognised for their impressive display that captivated attendees throughout the event. Congratulations to Matt Metcalf, Roddy Rutland, and Jordan Matthews on this well-deserved win.
Best New Product Award (Promotional) was claimed by midocean for their Mo2331 double wall recycled stainless steel bottle. Made with 90% recycled stainless steel and featuring a temperature-changing surface, it’s a product that aligns sustainability with functionality. Jardaine Floyd and Haydn Willetts accepted the award on behalf of midocean.
Best New Wearables Product Award went to DTB for their innovative transfer technology, a reflective full-colour print that switches to a reflective mode in low light. Ideal for branded hi-vis workwear and outdoor activities, this product is set to make an impact in the wearables sector. Danny Butterfield accepted the award.
It was a privilege for Ben to present these awards and recognise the creativity and innovation driving the industry forward.
