Judging by the feedback received while at SURFEX 2010 and the number of advertisers in this year’s  BCF Handbook,  we are very encouraged that so many suppliers are clearly keen to supply and distribute to our industry. 

At the BCF we have over 100 companies in membership (see  here for the list of members) - manufacturers of paints, printing inks, powder coatings and wallcoverings.  They represent well over 80% of the industry.  And we can help YOU to network with these members at various events, so that you can publicise the products and services you are able to offer.

Non Member suppliers are able to participate in most BCF Seminars and Workshops but Associate Membership allows you to attend and participate at reduced rates and attend the BCF Annual Conference.  In addition, we are looking to arrange a Procurement Day so that our Associate Members may spend time with “buyers” from manufacturing companies.   See  here for a full list of member benefits and  here for Associate Membership subscription details.  Given the time of year, you can join the BCF for 50% of published rates – so why not come on board for the remainder of 2010 !   We would be pleased to include a “welcome” in the October issue of Covered, sent to 1,000 Members, with details of your company, the product or service you offer and contact details.

We have a  number of events organised for the remainder of 2010 where we are inviting suppliers to take a table top exhibit space.  See our "Advertising and Exhibit Opportunities" page for more details.

Advertising space is available both in the next issue of Covered, details  here, and on the front page of our website, details  here.  

Remember, keep an eye on our “Advertising and Exhibit Opportunities” page – follow the link from the home page of our website.
