The Hardware Show 2026 Trade Show Guide

Page 1


The President’s address

I’m delighted to welcome you to The Hardware Show 2026, taking place on February 15th and 16th. This year, we’re putting our visitors first with our core promise: Free Entry, Free Parking, Free Coffee - making it easier than ever to attend the biggest gathering of Ireland’s hardware and building materials sector.

Building on the success of our last show in February 2024, we return in 2026 with even greater momentum. With over 180 exhibitors already confirmed, this year’s event is shaping up to be an outstanding opportunity to do business, discover new products, and reconnect with colleagues across the industry.

Our theme for 2026, “Building Innovation,” is reflected throughout the show. Exhibitors across the four categories - Home, Garden, Build and DIY - are ready to showcase the very best in innovation and meet with you to discuss how they can support your growth. Many have also prepared exclusive show-only promotions and competitions inspired by your feedback from previous years.

We are proud to again welcome Intact as our Main Sponsor, whose support helps deliver a show of this scale and calibre. We also extend our thanks to Combilift, sponsor of the prestigious Innovation Awards, which continue to be a key highlight. A panel of expert judges lead by Bobby Kerr will assess entries across multiple categories, and the Overall Innovation Award winner will be announced at The President’s Ball on Sunday evening.

As always, your voice helps shape the future. Once the show concludes, we encourage you to take a few moments to complete the post-event survey sent on Monday. Your insights directly influence our planning for the 2028 event and ensure the show continues to evolve and improve.

Hardware Association Ireland (HAI) remains committed to representing and supporting the full hardware and builders merchants’ supply chain - from national and international brands to multi-branch operations and independent businesses. If you are not yet a member, I invite you to visit the HAI Stand at the centre of the venue, to discuss how HAI can support your business needs.

With Free Entry, Free Parking, and Free Coffee, plus an industry-leading line-up of exhibitors, content, and innovation, there has never been a better time to attend.

I look forward to welcoming you to your Hardware Show 2026.

10 tips for a successful show

Sean McLoughney, the Talent Support Specialist, and successful author and keynote speaker, gives exhibitors a top 10 checklist for exhibiting at The Hardware Show. These are ten practical suggestions to help you leave a lasting impression on everyone who visits your stand.

1. More than just a Show

Think Before, During and After. Success for you is built around what you do beforehand, during the show and critically what you do afterwards.

Before: send out your last batch of invitations to key people During: attract and then engage professionally with everyone who visits your stand

After: capitalise on the contacts made during the show

2. Clarity around the purpose

Everyone on the same page - Ensure everyone on your team is clear about the reason why you are exhibiting at the show and what you want to achieve. Everything you do should be aligned with your purpose.

3. What is the plan

Plan the work involved and then work the plan. Explain clearly everyone’s role at the show and why their role is important.

4. What are your Key Numbers

Clearly outline what you hope to achieve. Identify what success looks like and use metrics to measure it. If you are looking for leads, then put a figure on it - 100 leads for the team.

5. Focus on Team Readiness

Plan your pre-Show Meetings, set a date now. Create an agenda to answer some questions. Does everyone on the team know your key numbers and how they will impact these numbers. Have you ordered your lead retrieval device? Have you devised a picture-perfect checklist for your stand. Prepare your team for success.

Social Media at The Hardware Show

The Hardware Journal asked Project Manager & Content Creator at Activate Vision, Gabriela Vavrova, to give her professional advice on how to best engage with social media at The Hardware Show.

Activate Vision are digital storytellers through their digital marketing studio and will be available to exhibitors at The Hardware Show covering social media before, during and after the weekend of show. They specialise in marketing strategy, social media marketing, and content creation.

Gabriela is available at gabriela@activatevision.ie, or call 085 248 5615.

6. Ladder of Loyalty

What is a customer centric approach for your company? Remind your team about your approach. Do you want a customer, a client or an advocate? What is a good, better and best experience for individuals visiting your stand?

7. Enhance your Brand

The show is a great opportunity to promote your brand and drive people to your organisation. It should help with differentiating you from your competition. Remind your team that they are brand ambassadors throughout the show, even when they aren’t at the stand.

8. Communication

Use all opportunities to communicate your message. Engage with social media. Ensure you have a consistent message that is linked to your purpose.

9. After the Show

Rank your prospects, ensure you have all your follow up material ready to go on Tuesday the 17th. This is another opportunity to get in touch with key people you didn’t meet at the show. Use your CRM system to track your prospects over the next 3, 6, and 9 months.

10. Debrief while its still fresh in your mind Don`t wait until the next time around. Set a time for this meeting during the week after the show. Discuss what you have you learnt. What worked or didn’t work? What did you learn from your market research?

Talent support specialist, successful author and keynote speaker.

Post something even if it’s simple

– Use your phone, not professional equipment

– Keep videos short (10–15 seconds)

– Show your stand, products, or activity

– You don’t need to be on camera

– Post before, during, and after the show

– Tag The Hardware Show and use the official hashtag, #HAIShow, #TheHardwareShow2026

– Film once and reuse the content

– Focus on being seen, not being perfect

– Something is always better than nothing

Faster systems for faster answers

Make every trading day easier

The Hardware Show is one of the few chances you get to step away from the counter, the yard, or the office - and have the conversations that don’t usually fit into a busy trading week.

As headline sponsors of The Hardware Show 2026, Intact is looking forward to those conversations. Not just to show GenetiQ, our browser-based business management software, but to listen - to what’s working, what’s changing, and what matters most to your business right now.

Mark Gurney, Group Sales Director at Intact, shares how GenetiQ builds on Intact’s flexibility to support faster, more simple working days.

What does “faster systems for faster answers” actually mean day to day?

It’s about being able to find things quickly, input data faster, and seeing live information when you need it. With GenetiQ, you work from personalised screens that help you find what you need instantly and move through transactions quickly - supporting better, faster decisions.

How does browser-based software support that?

GenetiQ feels instantly familiar - fast, modern, and easy to navigate, much like the browser tools we all use every day. It’s easy to access wherever you’re working, built with strong security, and helps keep overheads down.

Everyone’s talking about AI - how is it factored into GenetiQ?

We’ve been deliberate about how we use AI - building it into areas where it genuinely helps, not adding it for the sake of it. It helps you spot things sooner, without having to dig for answers. In GenetiQ, AI flags stock that needs attention, highlights patterns you might otherwise miss and cuts down the admin that slows you down. Backed by high levels of automation, it supports better decisions without adding extra work.

You’ve mentioned personalisation - what does that look like in practice?

Businesses change - processes evolve, roles shift, and new services are added. Personalisation means being able to adapt to those changes by adjusting screens, workflows, and rules yourself - to match how your business works. That flexibility avoids delays, reduces future costs, and keeps your system relevant over time.

Why is integration so important to speed and accuracy?

Disconnected systems create delays and errors. When eCommerce, payments, warehousing, and delivery are properly connected, information flows naturally and everyone can trust what they’re seeing. GenetiQ keeps everything in sync, removing duplicate effort.

What role does partnership play in getting real value from a system like this?

Software alone doesn’t deliver value - implementation, support, and partnership do. That’s where the people you work with make the difference. We’ve worked with this industry for over 33 years, and that experience shapes how we work: listening first, asking the right questions, and staying involved as you grow.

What should visitors expect if they stop by your stand?

A live system, real scenarios, and honest answers. We’ll show how faster access, better integration, and flexible configuration can genuinely make every trading day easier.

Come and see how GenetiQ is rethinking systems for merchants at Stand B9with prizes to be won!

Innovation Awards 2026 - Sponsor

Combilift specialises in the design and manufacture of customised material handling solutions for palletised loads, long loads, as well as heavy and oversized goods.

Founded in 1998, the Monaghan-based manufacturer has transformed material handling operations worldwide by helping businesses maximise space utilisation, improve safety, and enhance operational efficiency.

Since launching the groundbreaking C4000 multidirectional forklift, the product portfolio has expanded significantly to include pedestrian stackers, side loaders, articulated trucks, container loaders, and straddle carriers, with load capacities ranging from 1 tonne to over 150 tonnes.

Combilift equipment is exported to over 85 countries, and the company recently celebrated the production of its 100,000th forklift - a significant milestone that reflects its global growth and reputation for excellence.

Multidirectional forklifts for long loads

Combilift’s multidirectional forklifts, the C-Series and CB range, are designed to travel sideways while handling long and bulky loads, for example, timber panels, steel beams, or pipes. The sideways

function eliminates the need for overhead carrying while navigating narrow aisles and tight spaces, which significantly reduces the risk of injury or collision. This, in turn, allows for much better and costeffective use of all available space, an results in an all-round safer working environment.

Combilift’s Warehousing range

For warehousing applications, Combilift offers innovative solutions such as the Aisle Master articulated forklift. Designed for very narrow aisle operations, it operates in aisles as narrow as 1.6m and has a lifting height of up to 15m. Its “truck-to-rack” functionality streamlines offloading, handling, and storage, significantly boosting productivity. Additionally, it performs efficiently in both indoor and outdoor environments.

The company’s electric pedestrian stacker range, including models such as the CombiCS and Combi-WR4, provides compact, highly manoeuvrable solutions for confined spaces and busy warehouses. They feature Combilift’s unique, patented multi-position tiller arm, which enables the operator to stand at the side of the unit rather than at the rear. This position offers excellent visibility of even the bulkiest loads and their surroundings, eliminating any possibility of crush risk when working in confined areas and preventing product damage.

Warehouse optimisation

Beyond equipment manufacturing, Combilift offers a free, no-obligation warehouse and yard optimisation service. Delivered by an in-house team of design engineers and layout consultants, this service illustrates how warehouse space can be configured around the capabilities of Combilift products - in some cases doubling available storage capacity.

With nearly three decades of expertise and over 100,000 machines in operation worldwide, Combilift continues to drive Lifting Innovation, helping businesses make their material handling operations safer, more sustainable and efficient while optimising their existing facilities.
