Following advancements in global processing and manufacturing technology of upholstered furniture, manufacturing capabilities of the industry has been greatly enhanced with increasing market demand. According to statistics from the Milan-based Centre for Industrial Studies (CSIL), global upholstered furniture consumption accounts for about 15 percent of the entire furniture industry, with China, the United States and Germany named the world's leading producers as well as largest consumers of upholstered furniture.

From the domestic market, China's growing urban population is expected to bring about considerable room for development. With the continuous and steady growth of the country's economy, coupled with increasing disposable income and consumers’ demand for higher quality of life, more attention is paid to the quality of the products.

Going forward, manufacturers of upholstered furniture will need to increase their investment in brand development, design and “going green” to cater to demands for high-quality products. The use of top-notch technology is believed to be an important manifestation of industry competitiveness, which safeguards quality, and has a direct impact on production costs.

In addition to industry giants converging at the upholstered furniture production zone, international participants can also expect the well-received lounge in Hall 14.1, known as the PIAZZA, to be extended to Hall 12.1 in 2017. Named PIAZZA mini, the resting area will also serve up a variety of complimentary beverages and snacks, like its larger counterpart.
