29th April – 1st May, Birmingham NEC

JS Burgess Engineering is proud to announce its first-ever appearance at the FIT Show 2025, the UK’s only dedicated trade show for the window, door, flat glass, hardware, and roofing industries. As the UK’s leading stillage manufacturer, JS Burgess is bringing its expertise and innovative product range to the NEC Birmingham this May – offering attendees a first-hand look at the transport and storage solutions that support and shape fenestration logistics.

Why FIT Show?

With a decades-long reputation for delivering high-quality, custom-engineered metalwork, JS Burgess serves a range of industries across the UK and Europe. But glass handling, window systems, and large-format stillages are a core part of the product range, so FIT 25 is a clear opportunity.

Robert Taylor, Business Development Manager commented:

“For us, attending FIT Show just makes sense. We’ve been supplying stillages, A-frames, L-frames, and custom cages to some of the biggest names in fenestration for years. FIT Show brings that whole community together under one roof. It’s the ideal space to connect, collaborate, and show how our solutions can reduce damage, increase efficiency, and protect valuable materials in transit.”

What JS Burgess Will Be Showcasing

Visitors to the JS Burgess stand will be able to see a selection of their industry-leading stillages and storage solutions, each designed to meet the rigorous demands of transporting and storing glass, doors, panels, and other fragile or oversized products. Key highlights include:

A-Frame Stillages: Ideal for the secure handling of sheet glass and panels, A-frames are a staple in the fenestration supply chain. JS Burgess offers both standard and bespoke A-frame designs that combine durability, practicality, and safety.

L-Frame Stillages: Perfect for specific product dimensions or limited-space logistics, L-frames are a more compact alternative to traditional A-frames. These solutions offer robust support while optimising storage and transport efficiency.

Specialist Cages and Containers: Whether you’re moving sealed units, glazed frames, or other bespoke components, JS Burgess can design and manufacture custom cages that offer complete protection and ease of handling.

All products are manufactured at JS Burgess’s UK facility, ensuring high standards of quality control, quick turnaround, and full design support for bespoke builds.

Driving Innovation in Glass & Fenestration Handling

With increasing pressure on manufacturers and installers to improve sustainability, reduce product damage, and streamline operations, JS Burgess’s reusable steel stillages present a smart, long-term solution. Their products are engineered not only for strength and safety but also for reusability, stackability, and space-saving efficiency, making them an eco-conscious and cost-effective alternative to wooden pallets or single-use crating.

“Our customers are under pressure to deliver fast, safely, and with minimal waste,” explains Robert. “That’s exactly what our products are built to support. Whether it’s a single stillage or a complete fleet solution, we’re here to help businesses move smarter.”

In addition to high-capacity storage tanks, JS Burgess provides storm filtration tanks engineered to integrate with external filtration systems for regulatory-compliant water discharge. As part of our steel fabrication service, we can design and manufacture custom watertight steel structures designed to meet diverse industry needs.

JS Burgess continues to be a trusted engineering partner for water utilities and infrastructure providers across the UK. We remain at the forefront of helping clients tackle flood risks, meet compliance standards, and deploy cost-effective, scalable infrastructure.
