FOSROC RETURNS TO EXHIBIT AT HIGHWAYS UK FOR 2025


After last year’s success at Highways UK, Fosroc will be returning to Birmingham’s NEC on 15-16th October 2025 on stand K27 to promote the joining of Fosroc with Chryso and GCP as part of Saint-Gobain Construction Chemicals, and the launch of Nitocote AG anti-graffiti protective coating.

Fosroc’s Nitocote AG coating was successfully used in a National Highways trial earlier this year and offers an innovative one-coat solution to protect assets for up to 20 cleans with no need to re-apply. It requires only cold water and a cloth (or a jet wash for larger areas) to remove permanent paint and stickers. Watch this video to see it in action.

The theme for the high-profile industry event is ‘Roads for a Connected Future’, bringing together people involved in managing and maintaining the nation’s roads networks. National Highways is the official partner for the event, which attracts over 10,000 visitors, 360 exhibitors and an impressive 250+ speakers. The event has its own awards ceremony – the Highways UK Excellence Awards – where Fosroc was recently shortlisted for the Net Zero Award category. The impressive A19 Teeside Viaduct Substructure Refurbishment project was entered due to significant carbon savings made through the repair approach and CarbonNeutral® certified products supplied by Fosroc.

To find out more visit the event website. Visitors can register to attend for free, or tickets can be purchased for the awards evening.
