| Article | Floorstyle 08 has revealed its events line-up for this year’s launch show. Running alongside The Tile & Stone Show, the exhibition’s itinerary will include a live ‘Test the Experts’ floor laying challenge, a three-day seminar programme and a host of practical events within the show’s Demonstration Zone. Sponsored by The National Institute of Carpet & Floor Layers, Floorstyle 08’s ‘Test the Experts’ will see industry renowned expert floorlayers, John Roberts and Steve Ramsden, set the challenge of transforming a room in front of a live audience. The challenge will take place within two purpose-built booths incorporating contractors’ nightmares, from an ornate toilet to a curved staircase, creating an eye-catching installation showpiece. As well as demonstrating how experts tackle various tricky situations, there will also be an interactive question and answer session for visitors. Meanwhile, Floorstyle 08’s Seminar Theatre, sponsored by Amtico, will host a varied mix of presentations and lectures from industry speakers. The programme will cover a variety of topics, from design inspiration to specification of different wood species. Adding a practical element to the show, the Demonstration Zone will host a series of product demonstrations, enabling exhibitors to give practical, hands-on advice to potential customers. These will include a series of daily demonstrations hosted by floor finishing specialist, Werkmaster, who will cover hardwood sanding, lippage removal on marble and the polishing and grinding of concrete slabs. Floorstyle 08 will take place at ExCeL London from Sunday 29 June to Tuesday 1 July.
