The 27th China (Guangzhou) International Building Decoration Fair (CBD Guangzhou 2025) will be held from July 8–11, 2025, across the Canton Fair Complex and PWTC Expo in Guangzhou. As the world’s largest exhibition for building decoration, materials, and furnishings, the event aims to offer international buyers, manufacturers, architects, and designers unparalleled access to cutting-edge products and strategic partnerships.
Since its launch in 1999, CBD Guangzhou has been a key player in the Chinese market. The 2025 edition marks a strategic move toward greater internationalization, with expanded exhibition areas, tailored programs, and new initiatives focused on enhancing the experience for overseas visitors.
The fair will span 400,000 square meters, gathering over 2,000 exhibitors and more than 200,000 industry professionals. Its timing aligns with a critical period for the global furniture and building decoration industry, which is forecast to generate $799.46 billion in revenue in 2025.
The exhibition covers a wide range of sectors, including home furnishings, smart home technology, doors and windows, bath and sanitary ware, materials, hardware, machinery, and coatings. Designed to foster collaboration, the event creates an environment where innovation thrives and industry partnerships are forged.
Central to this year’s show is the introduction of the “Three-Ecology” strategic framework, integrating:
- INTERIOR ecology – showcasing smart home technologies and customized design solutions;
- EXTERIOR ecology – focusing on comprehensive outdoor living environments;
- MATECH ecology – highlighting innovations in materials, hardware, and precision machinery.
“International visitors will discover that CBD Guangzhou is not merely an exhibition but the compass for the industry’s future direction,” stated the organizer. “The ‘Three-Ecology’ framework facilitates meaningful connections across previously siloed industry segments, delivering immediate business value while charting the course for long-term industry evolution.”
For international participants, CBD Guangzhou 2025 offers an efficient gateway to China’s advanced manufacturing ecosystem. It combines trend forecasting, business matchmaking, and strategic partnership opportunities, providing insights that deliver competitive advantages in an increasingly interconnected market.
Preparations are actively underway, and free pre-registration is open, also offering comprehensive travel and event planning resources for visiting professionals.
