The exhibition provided an important opportunity for Firbeson Automation UK Ltd to introduce its products to the domestic market following the establishment of its UK manufacturing and operational base in Luton.
InstallerSHOW brought together manufacturers, installers, engineers, contractors, distributors and building services professionals from across the United Kingdom, giving Firbeson the opportunity to meet customers directly and discuss the practical requirements of HVAC and building automation applications.
Showcasing HVAC Actuator Technology
At InstallerSHOW 2026, Firbeson presented a broad range of electric actuators developed for HVAC, ventilation, fire and smoke control, and valve automation.
The product range included:
- Standard damper actuators
- Low-noise damper actuators
- Fast-running actuators
- Spring return actuators
- Fire and smoke damper actuators
- Non-spring return fire and smoke actuators
- Explosion-proof actuators
- Electric valve actuators
These actuator solutions are designed for applications including ventilation dampers, air handling units, fire and smoke control systems, heating and cooling systems, and automated valves.
A range of torque ratings, voltages and control options allows different actuator configurations to be selected according to specific project and system requirements.
Engaging with the UK HVAC Industry
InstallerSHOW was particularly important for Firbeson as the company continues to build its presence in the UK market.
Throughout the exhibition, the Firbeson team met with companies involved in damper manufacturing, air handling units, building automation, HVAC installation, system integration and distribution.
These discussions provided valuable feedback on the requirements of the UK market, including actuator performance, availability, technical support, product certification and delivery times.
For a component such as an actuator, reliable operation is essential. Although actuators represent only one part of a complete HVAC system, their performance directly affects the operation of dampers, valves and control systems.
Firbeson therefore places strong emphasis on product reliability, testing and appropriate product selection for each application.
UK Manufacturing and Local Support
Firbeson Automation UK Ltd operates from its manufacturing and operational facility in Luton, Bedfordshire.
The UK facility supports product manufacturing, assembly, programming, testing, inspection, warehousing and packing activities.
Having these capabilities in the UK allows Firbeson to work more closely with local customers and respond to different technical and commercial requirements.
Local operations also support shorter communication channels between customers, sales, technical teams and production, helping improve product selection and project coordination.
For UK manufacturers and distributors, Firbeson aims to provide not only actuator products but also accessible local support before and after supply.
Building Long-Term Partnerships in the UK
InstallerSHOW 2026 represented an important milestone in Firbeson Automation UK Ltd’s development.
The exhibition provided a platform to introduce Firbeson to a wider UK audience while strengthening relationships with customers and industry partners.
Following the event, the company continues to develop its UK customer network and work with HVAC manufacturers, damper manufacturers, AHU manufacturers, system integrators, distributors and other industry partners.
With its manufacturing base established in Luton, Firbeson Automation UK Ltd is focused on building a long-term position in the UK HVAC market through reliable actuator technology, local manufacturing and responsive technical support.
