* About iFMAC
Indonesian furniture, renowned and appreciated for its unique design and natural style, symbolizes a relaxing and elegant lifestyle. Being one of the largest furniture exporting countries in the world, Indonesia exported USD $2.65 billion in 2008, of which wood furniture accounted for more than two-thirds. However, in 2009, influenced by the global economic slow down, orders from main buyers such as America, Japan, and the Netherlands decreased significantly. Consequently, the Indonesian furniture industry turned to the Middle East and the European markets to discover new opportunities. As a result of this effort, 27 countries from the EU have promised to increase furniture import from Indonesia. Ambar Tjahyono, Chairman of ASMINDO has a very positive outlook for the Indonesian furniture industry in 2012. According to him, traditional buyers have gradually increased their demand more and more along with the recovery of the global economy. What`s more, the Indonesian government predicts 7% economic growth in 2011. All of this, indicate that Indonesian furniture manufacturers will actively seek out quality manufacturing machines, tools, and components.
