Design, Furniture and Appliances 3: Customer Pre-Market Engagement Webinar - Wed 22 July 2026 at 10am

Industry research estimates the UK hospital furniture market at approximately £450m–£480m in 2024, with projected growth to around £900m–£1bn by 2035, reflecting increasing demand driven by healthcare modernisation and an ageing population.

To help shape the future of this growing sector, we’re hosting an interactive customer webinar focused on shaping the upcoming Design, Furniture and Appliances 3 (DFA3) Framework Agreement Procurement.
