The BMF (Builders Merchants Federation) has announced details of its 2027 Parliamentary Reception, to be held at the House of Commons on 23 March next year.
The theme, Building material growth in every postcode, signifies the sector's readiness to support the devolution agenda championed by the Prime Minister and the urgent need to deliver new homes and upgrade older properties throughout the UK.
The event, which enables BMF members to showcase their work to parliamentarians, also features a new headline sponsor, InstallerSHOW.
BMF Executive Chairman, John Newcomb, said: "Our Parliamentary Reception is an important opportunity for the BMF to take the views and concerns of our members directly to MPs and policy makers, ensuring that the contribution of the building materials sector is recognised in discussions about housing, construction and economic growth.
"It is also a chance to showcase the latest products, technologies and innovations developed by our manufacturer members, demonstrating how our industry is helping UK housebuilders deliver new homes and enabling homeowners to improve and upgrade existing properties.
"We are delighted to welcome InstallerShow as our headline sponsor for 2027 and are grateful for their support in bringing the industry and parliamentarians together at this important event."
Nick Davison, Group Event Director, InstallerShow, said: "We're delighted to be supporting the BMF Parliamentary Reception as Headline Sponsor in 2027. This is an important occasion for the building materials sector, bringing together builders' merchants, suppliers, industry leaders and parliamentarians to highlight the vital contribution our industry makes to the UK economy.
"With this year's theme, ‘Building material growth in every postcode', the reception provides a valuable platform to champion the sector's role in delivering new homes, improving infrastructure and supporting growth in communities across the country.
"At InstallerSHOW, we share the BMF's commitment to bringing the industry together, strengthening relationships and ensuring its voice is heard. We're proud to support an event that puts the people and businesses behind Britain's built environment at the heart of the conversation, and look forward to joining the BMF at the House of Commons in March."
