As digital transformation sweeps across the world, intelligent manufacturing has become a key force for industrial upgrading and high-quality enterprise development. To take a solid step in this field, Diou Furniture Group recently joined hands with Soonfor Software, HOMAG China, Xinguang Intelligent, Huahua CNC, and Haopai Intelligent to officially launch an intelligent manufacturing project. Together, the partners will build an intelligent and flexible production workshop for Diou, providing greener, more comfortable, and more efficient office space solutions for commercial and corporate customers.

Diou Furniture: a fast-rising dark horse in office furniture

Founded in 2005, Diou Furniture Group is a technology-driven furniture enterprise guided by innovative R&D and centered on technology manufacturing, marketing, and service. Its product portfolio is built around office furniture and also covers hotel furniture, healthcare furniture, education furniture, and display furniture.


Over the past 20 years, Diou has continued to transform. As a large-scale industry player, it has built four major bases and 32 manufacturing plants, helping move the sector toward technology-enabled intelligent manufacturing.

In recent years, the group has followed a marketing strategy of focused product categories, all channels, and multiple brands. It has been recognized among Guangdong's top 500 manufacturing enterprises and as a Guangdong famous-brand product enterprise. Its marketing network covers 31 provinces, municipalities, and autonomous regions across China, with more than 2,000 terminal marketing service outlets. With strong quality and service, Diou has won the trust of major customers such as State Grid, PetroChina, China Life, Bank of China, China Mobile, FAW, CRRC, and China Southern Airlines, and has repeatedly refreshed its sales records.

Following the times and deploying intelligent manufacturing

Competition in the furniture industry is becoming more intense, and traditional production models face challenges such as high cost, low efficiency, and difficulty in meeting personalized customization needs. Diou Furniture recognizes that only by keeping pace with the times and actively advancing intelligent manufacturing can it stand out in the market.

Diou Furniture chairman Huang Shoujin said that launching the intelligent project is of strategic importance to the company's future. Intelligent manufacturing represents the core direction of manufacturing transformation and advanced productivity. By introducing advanced equipment and intelligent systems, Diou expects to improve production efficiency, shorten production cycles, meet personalized customer needs, respond quickly to market changes, and make data-driven intelligence a powerful engine for sustainable growth.

At the launch meeting, Diou Furniture vice president Huang Yayou emphasized the national strategic importance of intelligent manufacturing and expressed Diou's determination to follow this direction. She noted that cooperation with Soonfor Software and intelligent equipment partners is not ordinary cooperation, but participation in a national-level intelligent development strategy. She called on all team members to seize the opportunity and ensure the project is put into production as planned.

Zhan Haigang, head of Diou's intelligent manufacturing project, introduced the overall planning, implementation steps, and expected goals for the production line. He said the project covers not only advanced equipment upgrades, but also the integrated application of information management systems and automation technology, aiming to improve both production efficiency and product quality. A strict monitoring mechanism and phased evaluation system have been established to support smooth implementation.

Building an intelligent workshop and realizing flexible production

The intelligent and flexible production workshop is the core of Diou Furniture's smart manufacturing project. Intelligent equipment can improve production efficiency, reduce labor cost and production errors, and significantly improve product quality. Digital systems will make manufacturing processes more transparent and standardized, while flexible production lines will help Diou respond to large-volume, personalized customization demand.


Soonfor Software chairman Zhang Aiguo made a firm commitment on project progress, quality, and service support. He said Soonfor will strictly control every link of the project, ensure on-time delivery, continue improving product quality, and provide efficient and professional after-sales service to create maximum value for the customer.

Li Yue, vice president of Xinguang Intelligent, said the company has served many leading home furnishing customers and has complete furniture workshop system solutions. It can connect data flow and process flow from raw materials to finished products, and integrate production management systems with processing equipment. In this cooperation, Xinguang will use its technical strengths to help Diou upgrade intelligent manufacturing.

Wang Xiaolin, chairman of Huahua CNC, said the company focuses on the R&D and manufacturing of high-end CNC equipment and will provide high-precision and high-efficiency equipment to help Diou improve production accuracy and efficiency.

Tang Guofu, chairman of Haopai Intelligent, said the company integrates woodworking machinery parts sales, equipment upgrades, non-standard automation, and independent product R&D. It will send its best team for on-site installation and commissioning to ensure efficient project implementation.

Zhao Chunliang, general manager of HOMAG China's Zhongshan region, said HOMAG China, as part of Germany's HOMAG Group, is an integrated solution provider in the woodworking industry. The company has long supplied advanced equipment to many home furnishing enterprises and will send an elite team to fully support Diou's intelligent manufacturing project.

Looking to the future and leading industry development

Several years ago, Diou Furniture had already begun planning intelligent manufacturing and introduced high-end technology equipment to start a production transformation based on replacing manual labor with machines. This significantly improved production efficiency and made product quality more stable and controllable.

However, Diou understands that intelligent manufacturing is not limited to equipment upgrades. If high-end equipment is the skeleton and muscle of intelligent manufacturing, digital systems are its soul and brain. By introducing advanced digital systems, Diou can extend digital management into every production link, from raw material purchasing and processing to assembly and quality inspection.

The success of the project depends on strong support and close cooperation among all parties. At the meeting, Diou Furniture vice president Huang Yayou, Soonfor Software chairman Zhang Aiguo, HOMAG China Zhongshan regional general manager Zhao Chunliang, Xinguang Intelligent vice president Li Yue, Huahua CNC chairman Wang Xiaolin, and Haopai Intelligent chairman Tang Guofu jointly signed the project responsibility agreement, clarifying responsibilities and obligations. The signing marks deeper cooperation and a shared commitment to high-quality project delivery and win-win value creation.

This project brings together advanced technology, innovative concepts, and industry expertise. It aims to reshape production processes through intelligent tools, improve production efficiency, build a benchmark for intelligent manufacturing, inject momentum into sustainable enterprise development, and contribute wisdom and strength to the industry.

The official launch of Diou Furniture Group's intelligent manufacturing project marks its entry into a new era of smart manufacturing. Through intelligent and flexible production, Diou will meet personalized customization needs, enhance its competitiveness, and provide greener, more comfortable, and more efficient office space solutions for commercial and corporate customers.
