Running through Oct. 16, the event brings together over 310 exhibitors across 13,000 square meters, presenting more than 5,000 products to an expected 28,000 visitors from over 60 countries.
Organised by Kaigo Co., Ltd., TIW 2025 combines four major trade shows- the Taiwan Hardware Show (THS), International Metal Technology Taiwan (iMT Taiwan), Occupational Safety Taiwan (T-SAFE), and Refrigeration & HVAC Taiwan (RHVAC Taiwan) – into a single platform aimed at driving sustainable and tech-driven industrial transformation.
“At Taiwan Industry Week 2025, we’re not just showcasing machinery or tools, we’re showcasing machinery or tools, we’re showcasing the people and ideas driving the next era of manufacturing.” said Alexander Keim, CEO of Kaigo Co., Ltd., “Our goal is to create an ecosystem where Taiwan’s innovation meets global demand, turning every encounter into a potential breakthrough.”
The 2025 edition spotlights sustainability, ESG compliance, and AI-driven manufacturing. New thematic zones include the ESG Innovation Hall, Hardware & Hand Tools Innovation Area, Smart Building Materials Area, and specialized sections for plumbing, safety protection, factory equipment, and HVAC tools. Each section highlights low-carbon design, energy efficiency, and circular economy solutions.
Beyond the exhibition floor, TIW 2025 features the Knowledge Hub, a series of seminars and forums linking research, policy, and industry practice. Key discussion topics include the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), net-zero strategies, AI in manufacturing, and digital transformation. The sessions aim to provide businesses with actionable insights on implementing ESG-aligned and AI-enhanced production systems.
Over 20 international delegation groups from 10 countries are attending, underscoring the event’s global scope. Participants include EDRA/GHIN (Europe), Assofermet (Italy), Japan DIY Homecenter Association, and Indonesia’s GAMMA and INOSHPRO.
