Thailand’s Growing EV Supply Chain Creates New Opportunities for Industrial Suppliers

Thailand is strengthening its position as a regional electric vehicle manufacturing hub, with more than US$4.1 billion in investment commitments across 198 EV-related projects, according to recent data from the Thailand Board of Investment (BOI). The investment covers electric vehicle production, batteries, key components and charging infrastructure.

The development of the EV industry is also creating opportunities across Thailand’s wider industrial supply chain. Automotive components, production equipment, machinery, fasteners and other industrial products are becoming increasingly important as manufacturers expand and upgrade their production capabilities. Thailand’s automotive parts production is projected to grow by 1.5%–2.5% annually from 2026 to 2028, supported in part by growing EV component manufacturing.

Against this backdrop, the Thailand Fasteners & Hardware Tools Exhibition 2026 will provide a dedicated platform for manufacturers, suppliers, distributors and professional buyers to explore business opportunities and develop connections within the Thai and Southeast Asian industrial markets.

The exhibition will be held on December 3–4, 2026, at Hall 8 of IMPACT Exhibition Center, Bangkok, covering a total exhibition area of 6,000 sqm. The event will feature three main zones: Fasteners, Hardware and Electromechanical Products, with the Fastener Zone occupying approximately 4,000 sqm.

The exhibition is expected to bring together more than 200 exhibitors in the Fastener Zone and over 8,000 professional visitors, including manufacturers, distributors, importers, engineers and purchasing professionals. Product categories will cover standard and non-standard fasteners, automotive and construction fasteners, stampings and turned parts, fastener manufacturing equipment, testing and measuring equipment, molds, raw materials, hardware tools and related industrial products.

With Thailand continuing to develop its automotive, EV and manufacturing supply chains, the exhibition aims to create a practical business platform for international suppliers to meet regional buyers and explore new opportunities in Southeast Asia.
