The 25th China Xiamen International Stone Fair will be scheduled on March 16-19, 2025, at Xiamen International Conference & Exhibition Center (XICEC). As a hub to China and global market, Xiamen Stone Fair has been a must-attend event to showcase latest products, network with industry community, get inspirations from educational forums and admire the stone beauty. The total exhibition space will be 191,000 m², with 8 exhibition areas.
MARKET TREND
THE FIRST INDUSTRY TREND RELEASE OF THE YEAR
After 24 years, Xiamen Stone Fair has grown to be the first platform where stone brands choose to announce their latest products and technology of the year. China’s natural stone market plays a pivotal role in the global stone industry, which is outstanding in its huge market scale, rapid growth and wide applications. In the first half of 2024, China’s GDP saw an increase of 5% year-on-year. With the steady economy progress and the acceleration of urbanization, it is predicted that the demand for stone in China will reach about 1.08 billion sq.m. by 2025 and 1.52 billion sq.m. by 2030.
China’s natural stone market will maintain a strong growth momentum. For large-scale construction projects, cost-effective granite and marble are still prevailing; while with the developing diversified needs, high-quality stone varieties (usually referred to luxury stone) which are unique in color and texture are substantially welcomed by more end-users to be used in private residence, villas and elite housing.
STONE DESIGN
THE HUB OF STONE BEAUTY AND APPLICATION
Xiamen Stone Fair also serves as an advocate to promote natural stone and explore possibilities of stone applications, driving the development of the industry. Design exhibitions – Xiamen Habitat Design and Life Festival and Stone Infinite Product Design Show – are held to connect stone community with design sectors. We are happy to see the increasing artistic presentations and inspirational performance of natural stone in space design at Xiamen Stone Fair in recent years.
Exhibitors who take part in these exhibitions will showcase the featured stone varieties by cooperating with famous designers from architecture, interior design and product design sectors, as well as enjoy media coverage and publicity via stone associations worldwide and magazines in stone and design fields, thereby generating leads.
WHO WILL YOU MEET WITH AT XIAMEN STONE FAIR?
