Furniture China 2014 Promises Results with New Exhibit Category

The 20th edition of Furniture China will soon open September 10-14, 2014 and preparations for the venue are showing its potential visitors how it will once again deliver more than the expected results.

Furniture China 2014 has created designated exhibit halls for exhibition booths showcasing new products in furniture design, high-end living, dining and bedroom furniture.

The main focus of Furniture China 2014 will be three elements, namely Furniture, Design and Lifestyle. Halls E4 and E5 will be for living/dining and sleeping furniture. The exhibitors collaborated with different media to present lifestyle residential interiors through Living/Dining Plus at Hall E4 and Sleeping Plus at Hall E5. Retail brands for living, dining and sleeping furniture will exhibit in these halls.

Halls W4 and W5 will feature furniture design. Hall W4 will highlight brand designs with new concepts from innovative brands while Hall W5 will feature original individual furniture designs by talented local designers.

Hall N1 will showcase new classic furniture which will curate unique styles and the newest trends in home furniture. This is a comparatively fresher and more current take on furniture design compared to Hall N1’s exhibit in 2013 which showcased classic European furniture.

In addition, Furniture China 2014 will also introduce a new category in the furniture fair with the Upholstery Hall. The Upholstery Hall which will be located at the Shanghai World Expo Exhibition & Convention Center aims to encourage the upholstery industry, cater to the growing demand in the market and correspond to the upholstered products which will be exhibited in the three other halls within the SNIEC.

Furniture China 2014 will be held at both Shanghai New International Expo Center and Shanghai World Expo Exhibition & Convention Center. Last year, the show attracted 85,313 visitors in total. For 2014, they’re expecting a higher number of visitor turn-out which will be boosted by the addition of the new exhibit category.
