Manufacturers talk 2023 bath and kitchen trends at KBIS

More than 200,000 professionals from across the globe flocked to Las Vegas for the 10th annual Design & Construction Week (DCW), the co-location of the National Kitchen & Bath Association’s (NKBA) Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS), The National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) International Builders’ Show (IBS) and the three co-dated industry shows, the National Hardware Show (NHS), The International Surfaces Event (TISE) and the Las Vegas Winter Market. The five trade shows gave DCW attendees an amazing opportunity to visit five industry trade events with just one badge.

This year’s show, held at the Las Vegas Convention Center, boasted the highest attendance in DCW’s 10-year history. DCW's total attendance was comprised of 40,000 KBIS attendees and nearly 70,000 IBS attendees. DCW attendees visited more than 1,800 exhibitors showcasing the latest housing products across about 1 million net square feet of exhibit space.

BNP Media’s Plumbing Group was in attendance, talking to exhibitors about current bath and kitchen trends and what to expect in this space in 2023.

“It’s truly remarkable what we have accomplished these past 10 years in our industry,” said Bill Darcy, CEO of NKBA in a news release. “Tradeshows are back and this year in Las Vegas proves just that. You could feel the positive energy flow through the show floor.”

Next year, DCW will return to Las Vegas from Feb. 27-29, 2024.
