Professional Woodworking Expo welcomes SawStop to 2026 exhibitor lineup

Professional Woodworking Expo is proud to announce that SawStop, the revolutionary leader in table saw safety and performance, will join its lineup of top woodworking brands when the show returns to the NEC, Birmingham, from 17–19 May 2026.

SawStop has transformed woodworking safety standards in the United States with its industry-leading brake technology and robust design and is now making its official debut in the UK and EU markets.

“We believe it’s time more European woodworkers experience what safety and performance should really look like,” said a SawStop spokesperson.

“SawStop has transformed the woodworking industry in the US and now it’s time to bring that same standard to the UK and EU. This show gives us the perfect stage to connect directly with the pros and passionate hobbyists who care about quality and innovation.”

At Professional Woodworking Expo, SawStop will showcase the acclaimed Professional Cabinet Saw, renowned as the safest and most refined saw on the market. Thanks to the award-winning brake system and rock-solid construction, it’s unlike anything most UK woodworkers have experienced before. Attendees can look forward to live demonstrations, hands-on interaction with SawStop’s technology and direct access to experts ready to answer every question.

Professional Woodworking Expo is the UK’s premier trade show for woodworking professionals, advanced enthusiasts, educators and suppliers, drawing attendees from across Europe for three days of innovation, demonstration and networking.

David Todd, Professional Woodworking Expo Event Director, commented: “SawStop has redefined safety, setting a new global benchmark. We’re thrilled to welcome them to the expo and can’t wait for our attendees to see, feel and experience this innovation in person. The ability to showcase truly next-generation tools is what this event is all about, and we know SawStop will be a highlight.”

SawStop is eager to connect with professional woodworkers, advanced hobbyists, educational institutions and dealers looking for next-generation saws that are as safe as they are precise. The expo will also mark the first time many UK and European woodworkers experience the SawStop difference up close.
