The Thailand International Woodworking & Furniture Exhibition (TIWF) will be held from 18-20 September 2024 at Impact Exhibition & Convention Centre, Bangkok.

This biennial B2B market platform will feature more than 150 international and local woodworking machinery and technology, materials and supplies, fitting and components, to network with targeted buyer audience of more than 4,000 trade visitors.

Along with the exhibition, there will be a targeted business matching programme, conference and workshop held alongside.

Thailand is the net importer of woodworking machinery, valued at US$ 60.8 million – more than seven times of its exports value. It is also the 30th largest importer of woodworking machinery in the world.

Its exports of furniture and parts were valued at US$ 1.8 billion (2022), an increase by 16% from 2021.

Increasing demands for imported processed woods due to lack of domestic supply also increase demands for automated woodworking machinery to improve efficiency.

The reason behind the exhibition being held in Thailand is due to its vibrant buildings and construction industry, driven by rapid urbanisation, mega government infrastructure and private sector real estate developments.

The host organisation of TIWF 2024 is the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment of Thailand. It is strongly supported by both international and local woodworking and furniture manufacturing related associations. Details on www.thailandwoodworking.com.
