Hexagon will demonstrate how UK kitchens, bedrooms and bathrooms manufacturers can move from design vision to manufacturing precision at kbb Birmingham 2026 (1-4 March, NEC Birmingham).
On stand L62, Hexagon will showcase how CABINET VISION and ALPHACAM support a connected, production-ready workflow, taking cabinet designs from initial concept and configuration through to CNC-ready output without loss of intent or control.
As 2026 design trends show, homeowners increasingly expect bespoke, character-rich interiors that reflect personal taste and lifestyle, whether that’s unique cabinet detailing, integrated living spaces, or texture and material layering that move away from standardised looks. Designers are pointing to warm, tactile materials, personalised elements and detailed cabinetry as key drivers in 2026 interiors, particularly in kitchens and bathrooms.
At the same time, the UK kitchen furniture market continues to grow, supported by steady consumer interest in home improvement and renovation, often focused on superior quality and design flexibility. For manufacturers, meeting these evolving expectations means transforming customers’ creative visions into precise, repeatable production outcomes.
Disconnected design and production tools make that transition from creative intent to precise execution increasingly difficult to manage. At kbb Birmingham, Hexagon will show how digital standardisation helps manufacturers bridge that gap.
By embedding construction rules, machining logic and production standards directly into the design stage, CABINET VISION ensures design intent is defined accurately from the outset and carried through later stages, even when changes are introduced late in the process. That intent can then be taken directly into CNC machining with ALPHACAM. Automated CNC programming, nesting and machining strategies reduce manual CAM effort while improving repeatability, material utilisation and machine efficiency across cabinet panels, doors and carcasses.
“Design vision is only valuable if it can be delivered precisely on the shopfloor,” said Deon Price, Sales Manager for CABINET VISION and ALPHACAM in the UK. “As homeowners expect more personalised and crafted interiors, manufacturers need workflows that translate those bespoke visions into dependable production outcomes, without adding cost or risk.”
Live demonstrations on the Hexagon stand will follow real KBB manufacturing scenarios, showing how designs progress from concept through to machine-ready output, with a focus on repeatability, quality and production confidence.
