Celebrating two decades of expansion, this event stands out as a crucial hub for connecting furniture experts worldwide.

Redefining global furniture trends
Ever since it was founded, CIFM/interzum guangzhou has been delving deep into the furniture industry’s value chain, driving high-quality development. In 2024, it will set a new record in terms of size and scale, held over 180,000 sqm and hosting more than 1,300 global furniture manufacturing brands.

Design and aesthetics take centre stage
In 2024, the “Vitality of Sustainable Innovation and Life” (VSIL) forum will focus on the theme of “Design Utopia.” By bringing the global home interior design sector face to face with its supply chain, the forum aims to foster professional dialogue between industry experts, designers and supply chain brands. Notable speakers include international designers Dick Spierenburg, CM Jao and Henny van Nistelrooy as well as representatives from leading companies in the supply chain, such as Schattdecor, Hettich and Domus Line. The discussions will showcase examples of collaborative innovation between the design scene and its supply chain. Additionally, European materials expert Sascha Peters and representatives from LINAK, SIMALFA and Home Color Research Institute explore new, environmentally friendly and sustainable frontiers in the home furnishings industry.
Furthermore, the 2024 Boundless Design Forum will discuss advanced edge banding technologies, led by representatives from Henkel, IMA Schelling, Rehau, Renolit and high-end furniture businesses with the aim of promoting the development of high-quality panel furniture.
The VSIL Gallery 2024, a highlight of CIFM/interzum guangzhou, will collaborate with the Asia Color Trend Book to explore Asian aesthetic trends in 2024. With “Re‑route” and “Coexistence” as its themes, it will showcase innovative trends that are breaking free from traditional design constraints and explore how harmony between technology and nature can guide the future of craftsmanship.
