salone del mobile di milano
21-26 April 2026
The 2026 Salone del Mobile concluded with extraordinary success, setting a new attendance record with over 316,000 visitors (+4.5% compared to the previous year), confirming its leadership in the design sector.
It is characterized by a strong international presence, with 1,900 exhibitors from 32 different countries, generating a significant economic impact thanks to a record number of foreign buyers, with China remaining the main market, followed by strong growth from the United States and Canada.
The Fuorisalone alone generated approximately 255 million euros in economic impact, attracting 500,000 visitors to various districts throughout the city.
The main highlight was the debut of the Salone Contract Forum, dedicated to large-scale supply for hotels, offices, and turnkey projects, a sector in which NECE Anodizzazione has been operating with great success for decades.
The dominant trends focused on Sustainability and Well-being through the use of recycled materials, organic shapes, interior design solutions, and projects that blend craftsmanship with algorithms and digital innovation.
NECE, a company specialized in anodic oxidation, has collaborated with numerous leading brands in the international design sector, providing high-quality anodized aluminum finishes.
Given NECE’s specialization in the kitchen sector, the company had a particularly strong presence in the pavilions dedicated to Eurocucina, where it provided surface treatments for leading companies in the industry.
There was no shortage of anodized products from NECE in other halls, such as the International Furniture Accessories Fair and the International Bathroom Fair.
The 2026 edition confirmed the growth in demand for high-quality materials and finishes, such as those offered by NECE, with a record 68% of exhibitors coming from abroad.
