  • (1888PressRelease) November 29, 2024 - Thailand International Woodworking and Furniture Exhibition 2024 (TIWF 2024) premiered successfully in Bangkok, Thailand, from 18th to 20th September 2024 at Southeast Asian’s largest exhibition venue, the IMPACT Exhibition and Convention Centre.

    TIWF 2024 is an international face-to-face exhibition and networking platform to connect and do business with the woodworking and furniture industry in Southeast Asia. It provided a regional industry platform for the industry to expand their networks and foster international collaborations.

    The event attracted over 214 exhibiting companies from 20 countries, showcasing their latest technology, machinery, equipment, solutions, materials and know-hows to over 6,286 trade visitors coming from 49 countries.

    A key highlight of TIWF 2024 is its highly successful “Business Matching Program” that facilitated over 340 pre-arranged meetings between exhibitors and over 70 qualified hosted buyers, securing many business and partnership deals and exchanges.
    Mr. John Chan, Regional Director of American Hardwood Export Council, South East Asia said, “TIWF 2024 surpassed our expectations! From day one, we experienced a consistent flow of high-quality visitors. We have gathered numerous solid leads. The event also opened doors to unexpected opportunities and provided valuable insights into the markets’ unmet needs—areas where the American Hardwood Export Council can make a significant impact. We look forward to participating in the next edition!”

    Echoing similar sentiments, Mr. Guo Jinxing, Director of China Foma (Group) Co., Ltd. added, “We too have steady flow of quality visitors throughout the 3-day exhibition. Our business meetings were incredibly productive. We met buyers from over 10 countries, and in fact, we did closed some deals onsite. The activities at TIWF 2024 clearly set it apart from other events. We will definitely be back for the 2026 edition”


    At the same time, bringing together key players to share ideas, solutions and innovations, TIWF 2024 conducted a series of conferences and workshops with over 35 local and international industry experts sharing insights on wide ranging topics on emerging trends, technology, design and sustainability best practices.

    Some of the conference topics included topics such as “Wood Technologies Today”, “Driving Innovation - Future Opportunities in the Thai Wood and Furniture Industry”, “Evolving Trends in Global Demand for Wood Raw Materials”, “Wood Innovation Design for Low Carbon Architecture”, and “Sustainable Woodworking in Furniture Design”.
    TIWF 2024 also served as a “skill-upgrade platform” through the conduct of a series of well- attended carpentry masterclasses and workshops that imparted vocational skills and knowledge in furniture-making fundamentals, woodworking finishing techniques and operation of woodworking power tools and equipment.

    The success of TIWF 2024 underscores its commitment to supporting the growth of the woodworking and furniture industry in Southeast Asia. This event serves as a dynamic platform for suppliers, trade visitors, and buyers to network, exchange ideas, and forge new business opportunities.

    Mr. Boonchai Wangsatith, Managing Director, Sincharoen Veneer & Plywood Co., Ltd., said, “When we first heard about TIWF 2024, we decided to join immediately, and we are pleased to have received many interests on our products during the event. The event also provided us with updates on market trends and industry knowledge.”

    Mr. Wei Jian, General Secretary, China National Forestry Machinery Association (CNFMA), added “Despite this being the first edition of TIWF, our members' delegation has established many new business connections with local stakeholders as well as benefited from fruitful meetings with TIWF’s supporting associations. We look forward to fostering more partnerships with TIWF, which is a great platform for facilitating our members' business network in Thailand and ASEAN”

    To align with the regional Southeast Asian woodworking exhibition calendar, TIWF will be positioned as a biennial event, with its next edition to take place in Bangkok, from 16th to 18th September 2026, promising to be even bigger in scale and size.

    Meanwhile in 2025, the organizer will be organizing an international conference entitled “Southeast Asian Woodworking Summit 2025” with the theme “Shaping the future of woodworking industry and markets in Southeast Asia”
