The Rudge & Co British Craftsmanship Showcase 2026 is an exclusive, three-day immersive event held at the heart of our historic manufacturing facility in Wolverhampton. Established in 1901, Rudge & Co has spent over 120 years perfecting the art of luxury brassware. This upcoming event serves as a rare opportunity for industry professionals, interior designers, and high-end property developers to step inside one of the last remaining British factories that handles the entire production process in-house—from raw material to the final hand-polished finish.
Attendees will witness live demonstrations of traditional manufacturing techniques, including precision turning and meticulous hand-finishing, which have made our taps, showers, and accessories a staple in luxury homes across the globe. The event will also feature the official unveiling of our "Heritage 2026" collection, which blends Edwardian-era aesthetics with modern plumbing technology.
Beyond the factory floor, the showcase includes a series of technical seminars focused on sustainable manufacturing and the evolution of brassware finishes, such as Antique Gold, Brushed Nickel, and Polished Chrome. Our lead engineers will be on hand to discuss bespoke design capabilities for large-scale commercial and residential projects. Networking sessions will be held each afternoon, providing a platform for collaborators to discuss the future of British manufacturing and luxury interior trends. Join us to celebrate a century of heritage and the future of handcrafted quality.
