Intermob 2025, recognised as Eurasia’s largest trade fair for the furniture sub-industry, wood technologies, and forestry products, closed its 27th edition with resounding success. Drawing attention from across the globe, the event solidified Türkiye’s pivotal role in the international furniture and interiors value chain.
“Intermob, Eurasia’s largest trade fair for furniture sub-industries, accessories, forestry products, and wood technologies, concluded successfully with remarkable interest from industry professionals.”
Held at the Tüyap Fair and Congress Center in Istanbul, from September 25 to 28, 2025, the fair attracted 29,243 visitors from 100 countries, reflecting the increasing international demand for innovative, sustainable, and functional solutions in the sector.
Organised by RX Tüyap in cooperation with the Furniture Accessories Industrialists Association (MAKSDER), this year’s Intermob stood out as a vital meeting platform.

“The trade show brought together 29,243 visitors from 100 countries, including Türkiye, at the Tüyap Fair and Congress Center in Istanbul, marking another significant milestone for the sector.”
Among the total attendees, 6,427 were international professionals from 99 countries, including participants from Europe, Central Asia, North Africa, and the Middle East. These visitors had the opportunity to closely examine Türkiye’s advanced production capabilities, reinforcing the nation’s growing status as a manufacturing and export powerhouse.
The fair featured 470 exhibitors and company representatives from 28 countries, showcasing next-generation materials, accessories, designs, and digital solutions.
“Showcasing the latest trends, innovative technologies, and inspiring designs shaping the future of the furniture industry, the 27th Intermob Fair took place between September 25–28, 2025, serving as a global hub for business and networking.”
Spanning nine halls, the exhibition delivered a diverse range of innovations — from forestry materials and upholstery fabrics to chemical components and interior design technologies.
Products were displayed with a clear emphasis on efficiency, eco-consciousness, and aesthetic versatility, aligning with global sustainability goals.
“Displaying a wide spectrum of products — from forestry materials to furniture accessories, from chemical components to upholstery fabrics — Intermob proved to be not only a vital meeting point for furniture manufacturers but also a source of inspiration for architects and interior designers.”
Participants had the chance to connect with new suppliers, forge strategic partnerships, and tap into emerging trends. Architects and designers found inspiration in innovative materials and sustainable design elements.
The presence of international buyers and business leaders opened doors for exhibitors looking to strengthen export networks and expand into new markets.
Intermob 2025 placed strong emphasis on sustainability, digitalisation, and future-proof manufacturing. Through its exhibitor showcases, panel discussions, and one-on-one meetings, the event highlighted both environmental responsibility and business competitiveness.
“With its strong focus on sustainability, functionality, and innovation, the fair introduced a forward-looking perspective to the furniture industry.”
While most booths focused on product innovation, many also addressed the circular economy, carbon footprint reduction, and eco-friendly materials, responding to increasing global demand for sustainable interiors and construction solutions.
“By once again showcasing Türkiye’s production strength and design vision on the international stage, Intermob received high praise from both exhibitors and visitors, closing its 27th edition with outstanding success.”
Türkiye’s ability to combine efficient production, design innovation, and sustainable practices positioned the country as a reliable and forward-thinking partner in the global furniture and wood-based materials sector.
For four days, Istanbul became the focal point for global discussions shaping the industry’s future — from raw materials and automation to design and export.
