The National Association of Shopfitters (NAS) is the only trade association that exclusively represents, promotes and is dedicated to service the needs of the shopfitting and interior contracting sector; within the global sphere of construction and has been doing so successfully since 1919.

Today’s shopfitting market embraces much more than just shops. Whether it be retail, financial services, leisure, hotels, restaurants, museums, travel or any interior requiring the appropriate level of skill and innovation look no further than the NAS Logo. The skills required by an NAS Member extend far beyond joinery as the technological landscape of shopfitting and interior contracting continue to change at a rapid pace. The business is increasingly international. One thing is certain; the National Association of Shopfitters is providing expert guidance to members and clients, to enable the creation of new and distinctive ideas that satisfy our major stakeholder’s insatiable appetite for new and exciting environments.

Designers and clients recognise the NAS brand as the symbol of quality and reliability in shopfitting and interior contracting. Members look to the Association for the specialist advice, services and the pursuit of knowledge necessary to succeed in today’s demanding marketplace. The NAS is the catalyst in meeting everyone’s needs and create good relations between members, suppliers (often associate members), designers, clients and other major stakeholders.

Members need to keep up to date with the technology and legislation. Designers and clients need to know exactly what members are offering. The NAS keeps everyone informed, helping their members publicise achievements and customers to make the right choices.

Today’s NAS shopfitter is professional, blending traditional hand skills with modern business ability and cutting edge technical expertise. It is only by being a master of all these diverse talents that members can deliver the best possible results on time and to budget. The NAS is here to help shopfitters develop every facet of their skills.

New design demands new materials. NAS members are experts in what works best and where. As designers push forward the boundaries of the possible, Shopfitters develop new techniques to implement them. The NAS is the forum where this new information can be shared.
