Sign & Digital UK Show 2012
Birmingham NEC, 27-29th March.

CTR had a great experience exhibiting at the Sign&Digital show this year. We had an excellent response to our new British TMK15 laser cutting machine, so thank you to everyone who came and spoke to us.

Southern Manufacturing & Electronics Exhibition 2012
FIVE, Farnborough, 15-16th February ~ Stand W36

It was our first time exhibiting at SME Show, Farnborough - CTR enjoyed a great two days at the show - a big thanks to all those who visited the CTR Stand. We look forward to getting in contact with everyone very soon.
The show was very well attended and there was a general good buzz within the show area. Let’s hope that British Manufacturing will continue to successfully grow - it’s a great time for Purchase Managers to think about sourcing within the UK.
The organisation of the event was excellent - great access for setting up and breaking down the show - all in record time!
It is very likely that CTR will be attending next year’s show - more details to follow.
