亞洲第一、台灣最大五金工具專業展10/20–22於臺中國際會展中心開展，450家展商、逾千攤位齊聚
由臺灣手工具工業同業公會與朗盛行銷有限公司主辦的「2026 TiTE x IHT 台灣國際五金工具博覽會 × 五金工業展」，將於10月20日至22日在臺中國際會展中心（TICEC）登場，展出450家展商、逾1,000個攤位。面對國際市場諸多不確定因素，主辦單位全年主動出擊，目前應邀蒞臺的國際買主已逾百位，創歷屆新高；另有逾25家國際專業媒體將赴臺中實地報導。
拓展全球推廣版圖 北美買主居冠
看準供應鏈重組帶來的採購新需求，朗盛行銷團隊今年全面擴大海外推廣，足跡遍及歐亞，邀請觸角更延伸至美洲。在歐洲，團隊走訪德國科隆五金展（International Hardware Fair Cologne）、荷蘭阿姆斯特丹全球DIY高峰會（Global DIY Summit）及德國法蘭克福汽配展（Automechanika Frankfurt）；在亞洲，則前進日本DIY居家中心展（JAPAN DIY HOMECENTER SHOW）、上海中國國際五金展（China International Hardware Show）及越南胡志明市汽配展（Automechanika Ho Chi Minh City），於第一線邀請國際通路、品牌商與進口代理商來臺。今年應邀買主橫跨五大洲，其中以美國為首的北美市場為最大宗，反映美國市場採購需求依舊強勁；其餘買主來自德國、日本等主要採購市場，以及東南亞、印度、中東與中南美等新興市場。
其中，臺日鏈結更進一步。TiTE x IHT與日本DIY展建立雙展互惠交流，為臺日五金與居家修繕通路搭起橋梁；日本DIY．HC協會副會長竹田光貴將親臨開幕，並擔任全球五金高峰論壇主講人。
20分鐘直達產線 「展場即現廠」只有臺中做得到
臺中是全球重要的五金與手工具生產重鎮，從原料加工、鍛造、熱處理、表面處理到成品組裝，上下游供應鏈在20分鐘車程內即可串聯，並延伸至中彰投產業帶。聚落內的中小企業專業分工緊密，兼具少量多樣的彈性生產與穩定的品質交期，是國際品牌長期信賴的採購來源。
TiTE x IHT以此推動「展場即現廠，採購即決策」模式。買主上午在展場確認規格，下午即可走進工廠，親眼檢視產線、品管流程與交期能力，將跨國採購的決策時間從數週大幅縮短至一天。展場與產線無縫銜接，正是臺中獨有的競爭優勢。
全球買主齊聚臺中 國際採購洽談會開展前夕登場
開展前一日（10月19日），由經濟部國際貿易署主辦、外貿協會執行的採購洽談會將先行舉辦，邀獲全球近60家買主來臺，與國內廠商一對一媒合，涵蓋五金零配件、水五金及手工具等領域。買主會後隔日即可走訪TiTE x IHT，再就近前往臺中產業聚落，一趟行程完成洽談、看展到驗廠；本展更緊接在廣交會之後，成為亞洲採購之旅的最佳銜接。大會預估，今年到訪的國內外專業買主可望再創新高。
從韌性邁向共創 八大展區展現智造實力
隨著臺美對等貿易協定簽署，臺灣與日、韓、歐盟站上相同的競爭起跑點，手工具、水五金與機械等產業輸美競爭力同步提升，為產業注入穩定動能。去年TiTE x IHT作為臺中國際會展中心啟用首展，以「Team Taiwan—攜手打造臺灣製造新韌性」為主題，展現臺灣五金供應鏈在全球變局中的應變實力；今年則從「韌性」邁向「共創」，以「從製造到共創｜AI 賦能・智慧升級」為主軸，推動臺灣業者從產品供應走向與國際買主共同開發，並導入AI與智慧製造提升產業價值。展會規劃工具與配件、金屬加工、汽車修護與電動車、緊固件、數位智造等八大展區，並持續以ISO 14067產品碳足跡認證的綠色會展規格迎接全球買主。
以信任與效率 贏得全球買主
臺灣手工具工業同業公會理事長謝武志表示：「面對關稅協議、海外布局與國際訂單重組，臺灣業者始終以技術與信譽贏得客戶，全球市場對臺灣供應鏈的信任更加穩固。特別感謝經濟部國際貿易署於開展前夕辦理採購洽談，公會也將持續推動會員投入智慧製造與低碳轉型，與國際夥伴共同開發高值化產品。」
朗盛行銷有限公司總經理劉子豐指出：「買主不只來看產品，更希望在最短時間內完成供應商評估與採購決策。朗盛團隊今年走訪六大國際展，並將邀請觸角延伸至美洲，親自向買主介紹臺中的產業實力。我們將持續與公會攜手，讓臺中成為全球買主採購臺灣五金的首站。」
誠摯邀請國際五金通路、品牌商、進口代理商，以及國內五金、手工具、金屬加工、汽車修護與營建修繕業的專業人士，把握10月黃金檔期，線上預約免費觀展門票。

TiTE x IHT 2026 Brings 100+ International Buyers to Taichung, Taiwan's Hardware Heartland
Taiwan's largest hardware and tools trade show runs Oct. 20–22 at the Taichung International Convention and Exhibition Center, featuring 450 exhibitors across more than 1,000 booths
TAICHUNG, Taiwan, Sept. 25, 2026 — The 2026 Taiwan International Tools & Hardware Expo x International Hardware Expo Taiwan (TiTE x IHT), Asia's leading hardware and tools trade show, will take place October 20–22 at the Taichung International Convention and Exhibition Center (TICEC). Co-organized by the Taiwan Hand Tool Manufacturers' Association (THTMA) and Lanza International Co., Ltd., this year's show features 450 exhibitors across more than 1,000 booths. Despite ongoing global market uncertainty, the organizers stepped up international outreach throughout the year, securing more than 100 hosted international buyers — the largest delegation in the show's history. More than 25 international trade media outlets will also be on site to cover the event.
Global Outreach, Led by Strong North American Demand
Anticipating new sourcing demand driven by supply chain realignment, Lanza International significantly expanded its overseas promotion this year, exhibiting across Europe and Asia while extending its buyer outreach to the Americas. In Europe, the team exhibited at the International Hardware Fair Cologne, the Global DIY Summit in Amsterdam, and Automechanika Frankfurt. In Asia, the team attended the Japan DIY Homecenter Show, the China International Hardware Show in Shanghai, and Automechanika Ho Chi Minh City, meeting face-to-face with distributors, brand owners, and importers. This year's hosted buyers span five continents, with North America, led by the United States, accounting for the largest share, reflecting continued strong sourcing demand from the U.S. market. The delegation also includes buyers from key markets such as Germany and Japan, as well as emerging markets in Southeast Asia, India, the Middle East, and Latin America.
Ties with Japan have grown particularly strong. TiTE x IHT has entered a reciprocal exchange with the Japan DIY Homecenter Show, strengthening links between the two countries' hardware and home improvement retail sectors. Mitsuki Takeda, Vice Chairman of the Japan DIY Homecenter Association, will attend the opening ceremony and deliver a keynote address at the Global Hardware Innovation Summit.
20 Minutes from Show Floor to Production Line — only in Taichung
Taichung sits at the heart of Taiwan's hardware and hand tool manufacturing. Within a 20-minute drive of the venue, buyers can reach a complete supply chain — from material processing, forging, and heat treatment to surface finishing and final assembly — extending across the wider Taichung-Changhua-Nantou industrial belt. The region's tightly networked small and medium-sized manufacturers combine high-mix, low-volume flexibility with consistent quality and reliable delivery, earning the long-term trust of international brands.
TiTE x IHT puts this advantage to work through its "Exhibition as Factory" model. Buyers can confirm specifications on the show floor in the morning and tour production lines that same afternoon, reviewing quality control processes and delivery capabilities firsthand. What typically takes weeks of cross-border supplier evaluation can be completed in a single day — an advantage no other venue can match.
Pre-Show Sourcing Meetings Kick Off October 19
On October 19, the day before the show opens, the International Trade Administration of Taiwan's Ministry of Economic Affairs (ITA), with TAITRA as the executing agency, will host one-on-one sourcing meetings between nearly 60 international buyers and Taiwanese suppliers, covering hardware components, plumbing fixtures, and hand tools. The next day, buyers can walk the TiTE x IHT show floor and visit nearby factories — completing meetings, product sourcing, and factory audits in one trip. Held immediately after the Canton Fair, TiTE x IHT also offers a natural next stop for buyers already sourcing in Asia. Organizers expect domestic and international trade attendance to reach a new high this year.
From Resilience to Co-Creation
The signing of the Taiwan-U.S. reciprocal trade agreement has placed Taiwan on equal footing with Japan, South Korea, and the European Union, strengthening the export competitiveness of its hand tool, plumbing, and machinery industries. Last year, TiTE x IHT was the first international trade show held at the newly opened TICEC, under the theme "Team Taiwan — Building New Resilience in Taiwanese Manufacturing." This year, the show shifts its focus from resilience to co-creation under the theme "From Manufacturing to Co-Creation: AI Empowerment & Smart Upgrading," encouraging Taiwanese manufacturers to move beyond supplying products toward co-developing them with international partners, while adopting AI and smart manufacturing to create greater value. The show spans eight exhibition zones, including tools and accessories, metalworking, automotive repair and EVs, fasteners, and digital manufacturing, and maintains its green exhibition standards under ISO 14067 product carbon footprint certification.
"Through tariff negotiations, overseas expansion, and shifting order patterns, Taiwanese manufacturers have continued to win customers on the strength of their technology and reliability, and global confidence in Taiwan's supply chain has only grown stronger," said Alan Hsieh, Chairman of the Taiwan Hand Tool Manufacturers' Association. "We are especially grateful to the International Trade Administration for organizing the pre-show sourcing meetings. The Association will continue to support our members in smart manufacturing and low-carbon transformation, and in co-developing higher-value products with international partners."
"Today's buyers want more than a look at products. They want to evaluate suppliers and make sourcing decisions as efficiently as possible," said Andrew Liu, General Manager of Lanza International Co., Ltd. "This year, our team visited six major trade shows and extended our outreach to the Americas to introduce buyers to Taichung's industrial strengths. Together with the Association, we are committed to making Taichung the first stop for global buyers sourcing Taiwanese hardware."
TiTE x IHT invites hardware distributors, brand owners, importers, and trade professionals from around the world to register for free admission and join us in Taichung, October 20–22.
