Five up and an all out winner the 5th London Fabric
Show to be held at Chelsea’s FC’s Stamford Bridge Ground ended with accolades a
plenty. A feast of fabrics was on
display and both exhibitors and visitors left the show in sprightly mood after
a positive and successful show.
James Lowe from Aqua Clean, who launched a number of
new inherently fire resistant and wipe cleanable fabrics at the event said as
the show ended, “This has been the best
London Fabric we have ever exhibited at, we had only real, positive customers,
and there was a steady flow of customers on both days which made the show extremely
manageable for us and pleasurable for the visitors. Can’t wait for 2020!”
Organised by the BFM (British Furniture Manufacturers
Association), the 2-day event ended on 5th March and featured 38
high-end fabric producers and suppliers from Europe, including 10 from Belgium,
9 from Turkey and 9 from the UK.
Attended by fabric buyers from the biggest names in UK
upholstery, along with buyers from many group retail stores, the show featured
the latest designs in everything from heavy duty jacquards to light cottons and
also new fire and stain resistant fabric treatments.
New exhibitors, Bill Beaumont from Lancashire, Ragolle
Textiles from Belgium and Teksium Tekstil from Turkey all reported their
satisfaction at the event and vowed to return next year.
The renowned Belgian exhibitors including Annabel,
Boyteks and Ter Molst were also keen to express their praise of the 2019 show with
Koen Mortier from Ter Molst saying “It has been an excellent show, we are very
pleased and saw everyone we wanted to see.”
Turkish companies who are also a central part of the
show, had a vast array of different fabric types and designs to show to the
willing buyers. Adoksan, Aydin, Marsteks
and Yakar are among the regular exhibitors who find the show invaluable in
reaching the full breadth of UK buyers in one hit.
British companies are another firm fixture at the
London Fabric Show and included many prominent returning exhibitors – Abraham
Moon, Art of the Loom, British Velvets, Mobus and Warwick Fabrics among
them. Showing their newly launched
National Trust Collection, Abraham Moon which left the show in spirited mood
with their sales manager Julian Smith saying “It would take 2 months of solid
driving around to see all of the companies that we can see here in 2 days. This
show is a winner and we’ll definitely be back next year.”
The relaxed and sociable atmosphere at the show also makes it a special event in the UK
furniture calendar. Outgoing BFM MD Jackie
Bazeley, said, “I am gratified to go out on a high. This show has become an essential date in the
diary for many of our members. It is
always a pleasure to see so many well-known and friendly faces at Chelsea and
I’m sure that the show will continue to develop and thrive. We have had great
feedback already from this year’s event and I’m thrilled at its success.”
The show will return to Chelsea FC’s West Stand in
2020 and the dates will be announced shortly.

In 1951, F D Welters Ltd were at the forefront of a minor revolution in the transportation of new furniture items. Previously, this service was carried out by the Road Haulage Executive, a postwar publicly owned organisation which had nationalised much of the prewar transportation firms operating nationally at the time, with Pickfords being assigned specifically for the purpose of furniture transportation. This had garnered strong criticism from the furniture industry and most notably the British Furniture Manufacturers Association, who proceeded to set up a joint committee between the RHE and the BFM with a view to having more control over conditions of carriage and charges.
The pressure applied by the BFM on behalf of the Industry resulted in an initial allocation of revised regional responsibilities, which was followed by further deregulation to allow manufacturers the freedom to manage their own transportation. Being on the committee for the BFM at the time, F D Welters Ltd provided their support in this change, which encouraged further dismantling of the Government controlled RHE, paving the way for privatisation across the road haulage network.
welters are pleased to offer their long and continued support to the Institute of Cemetery and Crematorium Management (ICCM) which has already exceeded 20 years.

welters® acclaimed Heritage Herd has acquired one bull and two new pedigree Whitebred Shorthorn heifers from the ‘Katrine’ herd owned by the Forestry Commission. The Commission use them for conservation grazing at Loch Katrine, a freshwater loch and scenic attraction in the Trossachs area of the Scottish Highlands.
Whitebred Shorthorn cattle are on the Rare Breeds Survival Trust (RBST) watch list and welters® have been working with the RBST to source pedigree heifers as part of their Selective Breeding Programme.
Whitebred Shorthorn can be found mainly in the borders of Scotland and England. Bulls are bred primarily as a crossing bull and traditionally crossed with Galloway heifers to produce the Blue Grey, which is recognised as a pedigree breed in itself.
The Whitebred Shorthorn bull will be used to cross with selected black Galloways to establish a Blue Grey herd. The new heifers will also be used to produce new bulls that will further enhance the genetic stock to ensure a hardy and healthy herd well suited to the Border conditions.
