GUARDTECH'S Commercial Team are ready to spring into action with a packed programme of exhibitions, conferences and awards events across April and May, as the business heads into one of its busiest stretches of the year on the networking calendar.

With spring traditionally bringing fresh energy across the Life Sciences and High-Tech Engineering sectors, the coming weeks will see the team out in force at a series of major industry gatherings – meeting customers, partners and fellow innovators while flying the flag for Guardtech's cleanroom expertise.

First on the schedule is Making Pharmaceuticals 2026, which returns to the Coventry Building Society Arena on 21-22 April.

One of the UK's best-known events for Pharmaceutical manufacturing and supply chain professionals, the show offers Guardtech a strong platform to discuss modular cleanroom construction, rapid cleanroom systems and contamination control solutions with visitors from across the Pharma landscape.

Just a day later the team will be once again celebrating their innovation excellence at the Medilink Midlands Business Awards at the Empire Banqueting Hall in Leicester, where leading Healthtech and Life Sciences businesses from across the region will come together to celebrate ingenuity, collaboration and commercial success.

Guardtech are nominated for the Corporate Social Responsibility Champion award for their groundbreaking Cleancube container lab for Biotech company Oxitec, who will be undertaking potentially life-saving GMO work with mosquitoes in a bid to combat malaria.

May then begins with London Lab Live at ExCeL London on 6-7 May – an event that brings together thousands of laboratory leaders, scientists, engineers and technology providers to explore the future of lab infrastructure and innovation.

Later in the month (20-21 May), the team take on a Birmingham ‘double header’, with both the Cleanroom Technology Conference at the National Conference Centre and Chem UK at the NEC running concurrently, as well as attending the Bionow Pharma Manufacturing Conference 2026 in Liverpool on 21 May.

Associate Commercial Director Joe Shackley said: "Spring is always an exciting time because the events season really starts to come alive, and this year we’ve got a brilliant run of shows and networking opportunities ahead of us.

"We're looking forward to getting out there, meeting leading lights from Life Sciences and High-Tech Engineering, and having some great conversations about how Guardtech can support the next wave of cleanroom installation projects across many different critical sectors."

The spring expo schedule rounds off with Semiconductors Ireland 2026 on 26 May at The Johnstown Estate in Co. Meath, another important date in the diary as Guardtech look to expand their reach in the world of Micro-electronics.

But that's not the end of the springtime successes – as ANOTHER awards evening will take place the following week, where Guardtech are up for the Business of the Year More Than 50 Employees and High Growth Business of the Year at the SME Cambridgeshire Business Awards.

An evening of glitz, glamour and drama awaits at the Delta Hotels by Marriott, Huntingdon on 2 June.

With a busy spring on the horizon and a calendar full of opportunities to connect, collaborate and share ideas, Guardtech’s Commercial Team are ready to bloom.
