A PROVEN FORMULA

More exhibitors, more events, more innovations, more visitors – interzum 2017 had set a series of records before it even opened. The leading international trade fair for furniture production and interior construction also once again offered a unique programme of events this year. There are a number of strong reasons behind interzum’s success: the trends in the supplier industry provide the impetus for the design of tomorrow’s living spaces and inspire new products. Architects and designers visit interzum to fi nd material and technical inspiration. And it’s no wonder: the best and the latest innovations from around the globe were on show in Cologne, clearly and logically grouped into three segments. To help visitors orientate themselves more easily, further improvements were made to the Follow the Red Line system: once again this year, a red line connected Entrance South (50 metres away from the Köln Messe/Deutz Intercity Express railway station) with all the major exhibits at the fair. The interzum fl oor plan was slightly modifi ed to
provide space for additional exhibitors this year, but the tried-and-tested division into three segments was retained: Materials & Nature presented materials whose versatility just keeps on increasing. Individuality and sustainability were two of the key themes in Function & Components. This is where visitors could fi nd companies that develop lighting solutions and semi-fi nished products. The key players in the last segment, Textile & Machinery, were upholstery materials, fabrics and leather as well as the associated processing machinery.
