3-in-1 Trade Fair Opens in Jakarta: interzum jakarta, International Hardware Fair Indonesia, and IFMAC & WOODMAC Deliver Unmatched Industry Innovation and Networking
For the first time, Jakarta plays host to the inaugural editions of interzum jakarta – the Premier Gateway to Indonesia’s Furniture Innovation and Supply Industry and the International Hardware Fair Indonesia – Crafting the Future of Hardware and DIY. Co-located with the long-running International Furniture Manufacturing Components Exhibition (IFMAC) & International Woodworking Machinery Exhibition (WOODMAC), the events together form the largest integrated platform for furniture production, interior design, hardware, and woodworking industries ever staged in Indonesia.
From 24 – 27 September 2025 at JIExpo, Kemayoran, Jakarta, the three exhibitions will welcome over 400 exhibitors from around the world – including Germany, China, Switzerland, India, and South Korea, across more than 17,850 sqm of exhibition space. Organisers anticipate 15,000 trade visitors from Indonesia and across the Asia-Pacific region, including key buyers, distributors, and senior decision-makers seeking to source, partner, and advance manufacturing supply chains.
A Strong First Step for Indonesia’s Industry
The debut of interzum jakarta and International Hardware Fair Indonesia marks a milestone for Indonesia’s growing role as a regional hub for furniture production and hardware innovation.
Mathias Kuepper, Managing Director and Vice President, Asia Pacific of Koelnmesse Pte Ltd, said:“The launch of interzum jakarta together with the International Hardware Fair Indonesia marks an exciting new chapter for the industry in Southeast Asia. Alongside the well-established IFMAC & WOODMAC, we are proud to present an unparalleled platform that bridges global suppliers with Indonesia’s rapidly expanding market. With over 400 exhibitors and an anticipated 15,000 trade visitors joining us for this inaugural edition, we are laying a strong foundation for sustained growth and innovation in the years ahead.
Etty Anggraeni, Project Director from PT Amara Pameran Internasional (Traya), added:“The merger of interzum jakarta, International Hardware Fair Indonesia and IFMAC WOODMAC is expected to strengthen Indonesia’s woodworking and furniture production industries. Through this collaboration, interzum jakarta will give industry players access to global trends, new materials, and design innovation, while International Hardware Fair Indonesia provides a specialised platform for manufacturers and hardware professionals to expand networks, showcase innovations, and build strategic partnerships. In addition, the exhibition is supported by EISENWARENMESSE – International Hardware Fair, the world’s largest international trade fair for the hardware, building materials, and DIY (do-it-yourself) industries.”
The event’s partnership with IFMAC & WOODMAC is a key factor in its strength. The 2023 edition of the event saw 225 exhibitors and more than 12,150 visitors, making it a significant event in the industry. The 2025 joint staging is set to surpass these benchmarks, expanding both reach and depth for participants.
