At present, when labor is rare, and wages go higher, the need for DIY household tools has been substantially growing. As per Thailand government’s policy aiming to increase demands for hand tools, construction and industrial tools, Thailand has now expanded industrial manufacturing opportunities to other regions, continually, and has become an important marketplace of hand tools and hardware buyers in ASEAN.

This leads to the organizing of "ASEAN TOOLS EXPO 2023" as the ASEAN's annual trade event for the comprehensive showcase of hand tools and hardware which is set to inaugurate during this 31 August – 2 September at Queen Sirikit National Convention Center (QSNCC), Bangkok, Thailand, with an aim to serve as a launchpad for innovative hand tools from worldwide for over 5,000 trade visitors in CLMV and across ASEAN.
