TIFF 2016, say the promoters of the show, "represents ingenious ideas, new innovation, and the latest collections of decoration products. This year's event will be organized under the theme of “ASEAN Smart Living” and will focus on how Thailand’s image as a center of ASEAN furniture production and trading harmoniously meets the diverse needs of modern buyers."  

TIFF is open to all segments of the furniture industry including home furnishing retailers, importers, and designers, as well as  their suppliers. Pre-Registration or registration at the fair is required, with no admission fee. However, during the public days, all are welcome.

“The fairs' common denominators are tradition, knowledge, creativity and innovation, taking seriously the challenge of creating new products and brands. We all desire good design, in a highly developed furniture industry, which in turn, is able to successfully adapt to new market challenges.” said Malee Choklumlerd, Director-General Department of International Trade Promotions, Ministry of Commerce.

The show promoters promise that, "buyers and designers to visit TIFF this year will take a journey that encompasses the conceptual planning, aesthetics and technical solutions needed to achieve success in the furniture industry. TIFF recognizes it’s more than a Fair which concerns itself with the visual or ambient enhancements; it seeks to harmonize products shown with the environment in which they will be placed. Our industry at it's best is about more than just designing, building, and selling furniture, it’s about artistry."
