About the show

WMF, China International Furniture Machinery & Woodworking Machinery Fair (Shanghai), is Asia’s leading woodworking and furniture-production exhibition and has run since 1986. It is built on the idea that a furniture factory buys machinery, materials and components together, so the show places the three side by side rather than presenting machines on their own.

Each edition is organised around a working theme — for 2026, the smart balance of manufacturing — and the floor follows the factory’s own process order: wood pre-processing, panel production, panel and solid-wood processing, edge banding, surface finishing and upholstery production, set beside integrated lines and digital factory planning.

Reference

Concurrent shows
WMF is staged alongside CIFF (Shanghai) and Upholstery Tech, and with CBD Fair (Shanghai), as part of Furniture Tech Week, which brings design, materials and manufacturing together in one visit.
Concurrent programme
The 23rd National Wood-based Panel Industry Development Seminar is held on 4 September, a day before the show (a paid session with advance registration). During the show, an opening VIP tour and the 40th-anniversary partner awards take place on 5 September, a curated atelier runs daily from 5 to 8 September, business matchmaking is arranged for hosted exhibitors and buyers from 5 to 7 September, and the Recommended Products presentation and a forum on new surface materials and finishing processes follow on 6 September.
Curated routes
Wood Walk offers themed self-guided routes recommended by the organiser, pointing visitors to the exhibitors behind particular technologies and applications. A curated atelier reverses the usual order and starts from finished woodwork, using it to explain the equipment, materials and craft behind it.
