British brand Regatta Professional has been announced as the official workwear sponsor for SkillBuild, the UK’s longest-running and largest multi-trade construction skills competition.
Delivered by the Construction Industry Training Board (CITB), SkillBuild brings together the nation’s most talented construction trainees and apprentices to compete across multiple disciplines, from bricklaying and carpentry to plastering, stonemasonry, painting, and decorating, and more. Regatta Professional will supply high-performance workwear for competitors and judges, including pieces from its recently launched womenswear range, ensuring female participants benefit from tailored fit and comfort on site.
The sponsorship will be showcased at the SkillBuild National Final, taking place 19–20 November 2025 at Arena MK in Milton Keynes. This two-day event is the pinnacle of the competition, where the highest scorers from regional heats demonstrate their technical skill, precision, and creativity under timed conditions.
Richard Bullock, Head of Careers Products at CITB said: “SkillBuild is a wonderful platform to showcase the fantastic talent we have in the construction industry, and it would not be possible without the incredible support we receive from our sponsors. We’re delighted that Regatta Professional has become the clothing sponsor for the 2025 National Final – their reputation for quality reflects the high-quality skills on show during SkillBuild. We’re excited to see competitors don their competitive gear, and we hope this is the start of a strong, long-term collaboration between SkillBuild and Regatta Professional.”
In addition to the SkillBuild sponsorship, Regatta Professional will have a prominent presence at two other flagship industry events this year. At Super Trowel, the high-speed bricklaying challenge that attracts the UK’s most skilled bricklayers, the brand will be visible on site and supporting competitors. At Screwfix Live, one of the UK’s most attended construction trade shows, Regatta Professional will host a stand and deliver engaging industry talks from 26–28 September, highlighting innovations in durable and comfortable workwear.
With this partnership, Manchester based Regatta Professional reinforces its commitment to championing the skills and talent of the UK construction industry while delivering practical, stylish, and accessible workwear for professionals at every stage of their careers.
