Subcontracting

The choice of subcontractors exhibiting is equally varied, with precision engineering and finishing particularly well-represented. One example is Andover based Perfect Bore Manufacturing Ltd, which specialises in gundrilling, deep-hole boring, honing, CNC turning operations, CNC cylindrical grinding and superfinishing. Perfect Bore operates a fully accredited management system that is compliant to AS9100 Rev 2016/ISO9001:2015, ISO 14001 & OHSAS 18001. It is a bronze awarded signatory to SC21, part of the Fit For Nuclear (F4N) programme and the Supply Chain Charter for Nuclear Decommissioning Sites.

Following last year’s successful collaboration, Southern Manufacturing & Electronics 2020 will once again be partnering with the Farnborough Aerospace Consortium, alongside national organisations including Composites UK, NetComposites, the Confederation of British Metalforming, the GTMA and the British Gear Association. Also taking part this year is Locate in Kent, an organisation offering a wide range of services and support to firms looking to locate in the region.

Seminar programme

Alongside the exhibition and demonstration areas, the free seminar programme is a very popular feature. Two programmes run in tandem in two theatres, focused on manufacturing and electronics respectively. Themes discussed include technology, innovation, business management, marketing and a review of current industrial law and regulations. Free access to this kind of high-calibre technical and business expertise is another compelling reason for manufacturing professionals to attend the show.

Farnborough International Conference and Exhibition Centre offers free car parking for 3500 vehicles and is well-served by road and public transport links. A regular free shuttle bus service operates from both of Farnborough’s mainline railway stations directly to the show. The venue itself offers a high standard of facilities including a free WiFi service in the foyer area and high-quality catering outlets.

Admission to the show is free.
