Driven by the gradual global economic recovery and incredible growth in China, including an increasingly affluent and bigger consumer segment, the 13th International Exhibition on Woodworking Machinery and Furniture Manufacturing Equipment (WMF2010) and the 13th International Exhibition on Furniture Accessories, Materials and Wood Products (FAM2010), scheduled to be staged at the China International Exhibition Centre (CIEC) in Beijing March 10-13, 2010, will again be positioned as a motivator of two closely related trade events that have huge potential to create business for a long supply chain. WMF2010 & FAM2010 provide not only potentially lucrative opportunities for product sourcing and technology exchange, but also, perhaps more importantly, show professionals along various levels of the supply chain the state of woodworking machinery and furniture, wood product supply in China, helping to pave the road to new businesses.

Besides being exclusively supported by the European Federation of Woodworking Machinery Manufacturers (EUMABOIS) and organized by the China National Forestry Machinery Association, Adsale Exhibition Services Ltd., China Forestry Group Corporation and China Building Decoration Association, this year's exhibition will take up some 60,000sqm across the entire CIEC, where buyers and other professionals can expect to see an one-stop sourcing platform for technologies and products related to woodworking machinery, furniture accessories and materials.
