Ultimate Products, the owner of a number of leading homeware brands including Salter (the UK's oldest houseware brand, est.1760) and Beldray (est.1872), is delighted to be returning to Ambiente, the leading international consumer goods trade fair, which is being held in Frankfurt between 3-7 February 2023.

Attendance at Ambiente enables the Group to exhibit its range of quality branded houseware products to new customers, consumers and suppliers, as it continues to grow brand awareness in the strategically important European market.

As part of its exhibition at Ambiente, the Group will be showcasing recently launched products, including:

· The Petra Sorbet Collection, a range of innovative kitchen electrical items including 3-in-1 treat makers, chocolate fountains and popcorn and candyfloss makers, continuing the Petra brand's hugely successful relaunch since its acquisition in February 2021

· The Go Bake collection of cookware and bakeware items from Progress, where all items are part of the Progress promise to plant a tree for every product sold; understanding the importance of sustainability and growing a greener future together

· Salter Bluetooth Smart Scales, which can be synched with smartphones via the free Salter Heath app, allowing users to chart progress and track their health

Simon Showman, Chief Executive of Ultimate Products, commented:

"We are very excited to be heading back to Ambiente for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic. This trade fair is a fantastic opportunity for us to meet customers, consumers and suppliers, and share with them our range of beautiful and more sustainable products, suitable for every home. We look forward to seeing everyone there."
