Making more out of Wood

As the world’s leading trade fair, LIGNA not only represents the global range of tools, machines and plants for woodworking and wood processing, but is also regarded as a driving force for industry development. Still highly topical are the topics “Transformation of Wood Processing”, “Prefabrication Processes in Wood Construction” and “Green Material Processing – Process Technologies of the Bioeconomy”. With its seven exhibition areas, LIGNA is the industry meeting place for all suppliers to the primary and secondary industries. Get an overview of the market and meet manufacturers, customers and partners.

The three focus topics

Woodworking transformation

Current and future developments in digitization and the consequences for the entire industry – from craft businesses to industrial groups, from products and individual solutions to the overall process and business model.

Prefabrication processes in timber construction

The increase in the importance of wood in construction – both for pure wood buildings and for mixed wood structures – is leading to new requirements for efficiency and prefabrication.

Process technologies of the bioeconomy

The forestry and wood sector – Wood value chain – is an integral part of the circular bioeconomy. The wood-based bioeconomy is considered an innovative driver of technologies and is therefore highly relevant and forward-looking for process technologies and products in wood processing.
