Resource-efficient production processes are crucial to the industry’s future, and this key topic will feature prominently in both the exhibitors’ presentations and the first-class event programme.
Industry event delivers added value
One of the standout highlights at the event is set to be the stage on the Boulevard North, which will offer double the inspiration by hosting two distinct formats. The interzum Trend Stage will offer exclusive in-depth insights into the market trends in furniture, materials and interior design. Hosted at the same location, the Product Stage will see top companies present their innovative products and corporate visions. The trend forums will also address the most important issues facing the industry. They will shed light on topics such as biocircular materials, intelligent use of resources and digital product passports.

A further highlight will be the prestigious interzum award, which honours exceptionally innovative products, production processes and materials developed by international suppliers to the furniture industry.
