The team visited kbb last week – 5th time for Lauren and Michele. As specialists in kitchen and bathroom PR, we look forward to this show so much! We are there to support our clients and also to see what other companies are showcasing for the year(s) ahead. It’s also a great opportunity to catch up with journalists who we’ve been lucky enough to have developed strong relationships with over the years.
Kbb planning starts months in advance – from writing previews and media packs, to arranging media visits on the stands. We had two Taylor Alden clients exhibiting this year – Caple and Königstone. Here is an overview.
Caple, deservingly, won Best Kitchen Stand on the opening day! Visitors were treated to the “Caple Experience” and viewed a wide range of products while one of the expert team members gave them a tour. Jo and Lauren, Caple’s Training Managers, were cooking up a storm throughout the four days using the Sense Premium ovens and the clever and innovative built-in induction hob on a stunning surface (pictured below). Other stand out products were the Caple Plasma filter, the Black Glass range of products and new extraction systems.
Laurence Lleweyn-Bowen was there too to check out what was on offer. We arranged for Laurence to speak to kbbbreview and the conversation was fun! We will share more on this when it’s aired. Laurence is a massive fan of kitchen brand – make sure you check out Caple’s Instagram here to view a quick overview of his time on the stand.
BBC Radio 4 stopped by and recorded Caple’s Managing Director for an upcoming show, due to be aired in June. This conversation was focused around the built-in induction hob, mentioned above, and the heritage of kitchens in general.
Köngistone was there showcasing the KönigCeramic range (pictured below). The stunning range is available in eight different colours and can be used as flooring, as well as surfaces and door fronts. The Athena Collection was also proudly on show.
They kicked off the show with a bang as kbbreview interviewed Wes Osborne, Sales Director for Königstone, on the Sunday. Journalists from The Times, Kitchens Review, Kitchens, Bedrooms & Bathrooms and more all visited the impressive stand to chat to the surface experts and view the products.
We’re already looking forward to 2026!
