It attracts more than 90,000 woodworking professionals from around the world who are inspired by innovative products and technologies that cover the entire woodworking value chain. The industry’s leading companies demonstrate their machinery and equipment in live operation and showcase their latest developments. LIGNA thus offers a unique opportunity to find out about the latest trends and developments in the woodworking industry and to make direct contact with the experts.
A season of its own
Every two years, LIGNA is not just the place to discover innovations, close deals and build your network. In addition to the pure exhibition, the show has numerous special formats to offer the entire spectrum of the woodworking and wood processing industry that go beyond the pure exhibition area.
Digitalization is currently having a major impact on the woodworking industry and will continue to do so in the future, from small craft businesses to large industrial groups. This affects the product itself as well as individual solutions and the entire production process. An important role is played by prefabrication, where wood parts are machined in advance to speed up the construction process and increase efficiency. The forestry and wood sector is also an important part of the circular bioeconomy and helps to develop innovative process technologies.
