FAIRS Healthy outlook for upcoming edition of FIMMA–Maderalia FIMMA–Maderalia 2022 takes place from 29th March to 1st April at Feria Valencia. The International Fair for Materials, Technology and Components for Furniture Manufacturing, Interior Design and Contract Projects has already stimulated considerable interest amongst the industries concerned. FIMMA–Maderalia has confirmed that more than 200 companies have already booked themselves a space. These include both Spanish and international companies, that will be offering tools, machinery, technology, components, board, and coverings, amongst many other products. All are leading operators in their respective sectors and have welcomed the return of the industry’s foremost biennial fair following FIMMA–Maderalia’s cancellation in 2020 due to the pandemic. The fair is now returning at full strength and against a backdrop of the health situation becoming normal again and international contacts being re-established, and in a broader context of strong growth in the industry fuelled by high demand for services such as refurbishment and fitting out ofhomes and other environments. New features to mark the industry coming together again Even though it will be taking place in the wake of previous success, Fimma–Maderalia 2022 will be refreshing certain elements of its content to ensure that, as a showcase, it reflects the industry’s current needs. It will therefore be featuring a stronger representation of the new materials and components that have appeared over the last few years and have become established as a key part of the industry’s development. Technological advances will also be a major feature of FIMMA–Maderalia’s offering, both as regards to Industry 4.0 and the launch of different digital platforms that optimize and improve the efficiency of the furniture manufacturing and wood processing industries. Commitment to and investment in sustainability and the environment will as a result be one of the cornerstones of a significant part of the offering on show www.fimma-maderalia.com Eurobois postponed Given the new health situation at the beginning of this year, and because the health of all is a priority, the Eurobois trade show, which was to be held from February 1 to 4, 2022 will be postponed. Eurobois will therefore be held from 14 to 17 June 2022 at Eurexpo Lyon, France. It is in the respect of the sanitary instructions which will be then in force that the professionals of the wood sector will meet next June to exchange, discover the last innovations, and create new business opportunities. www.eurobois.net “ZOW reloaded” Gathering ideas, maintaining contacts, finding solutions for the challenges of the future, the ZOW supplier trade fair for the furniture and interiors industries, will be an incubator for innovations in 2022. The popular trade fair, which is both a creative workshop and a business event for suppliers to the furniture industry in Germany and neighbouring countries, will take place in Bad Salzuflen from 3 to 5 May 2022 due to the pandemic. As the first trade fair of relevance for the industry since autumn of last year, the next ZOW will serve many visitors as a help in determining their positions. This is because the pressure for innovation and the demand for unusual, new and smart product solutions is enormous. ZOW stands for an innovative concept and promotes fresh approaches. It is therefore the ideal platform for companies that are achieving success with their approaches in this spirit, and for visitors looking for precisely such “hidden solutions” in order to stay one step ahead of the competition. It is thus the goal of the ZOW team to find the right exhibitor mix between “global players“, innovative medium-sized companies and “start-ups”. This was quite successful for the event planned in February. The furniture and interiors industries, as well as their suppliers, machinery outfitters and service providers, belong to the favourably positioned growth industries. Especially in the currently difficult times and subject to the renovation congestion that has been building up for years in the European apartment market, the focus of many consumers is on updating or expanding their interior design. The demand is correspondingly high. Delivery chain disruptions and the general acceleration in prices require quick, acceptable, competitive solutions, which also have to be produced sustainably and responsibly. The perfect, next possible platform for discussion and finding solutions for all these challenges is therefore the ZOW in May 2022. www.zow.de 32 No. 1 • March 2022
FAIRS HOLZ-HANDWERK and FENSTERBAU FRONTALE 2022 The trade show pairing of HOLZ-HANDWERK and FENSTERBAU FRONTALE 2022 has been rescheduled in close consultation with exhibitors: To meet multiple requests from registered exhibitors and enable all participants to plan with confidence, NürnbergMesse and VDMA Holzbearbeitungsmaschinen, as the organizer of HOLZ-HANDWERK, have jointly decided to postpone the combined event until Tuesday 12 – Friday 15 July 2022. Elke Harreiss, Director FENSTERBAU FRONTALE, and Stefan Dittrich, Director HOLZ- HANDWERK, add: “By acting early to reschedule HOLZ- HANDWERK and FENSTERBAU FRONTALE to a date in summer, we are accommodating the wishes of many exhibitors to provide a meeting place for the industry where they can network and do business in a positive atmosphere in 2022. To achieve this, we are relying on a hygiene and access concept that has already proven successful and combines our customers’ needs for personal interaction with safety in the best possible way. We are very grateful for the many constructive conversations with the advisory boards and industry representatives, which provided significant encouragement for this decision. VDMA Woodworking Machinery: Confidence for HOLZ-HANDWERK trade fair in summer Dr Bernhard Dirr, Managing Director of the VDMA Woodworking Machinery Association, comments on the July date of the HOLZ- HANDWERK 2022 trade fair. “Mid-July would certainly not be a desirable date in normal times, but we have to take the pandemic into account. The fact that the federal states with the most visitors do not yet have holidays is very convenient for us. In any case, we are looking forward to this important fair with confidence; we expect that a large number of the targeted visitors from the joinery and carpentry trades and other woodworking sectors will come to Nuremberg again. The commitment of renowned market participants such as Homag, Weinig, Biesse, Holz-Her, Leitz and Leuco is a clear signal from the exhibitor side. www.holz-handwerk.de DACH+HOLZ International DACH+HOLZ International will not be taking place as originally planned in February 2022 in Cologne. The continuing coronavirus pandemic and unpredictable framework conditions for holding trade fairs as set by government policy make it impossible to plan such an event with any certainty. For this reason, the organiser and institutions responsible for the trade fair have unanimously agreed to postpone DACH+HOLZ International until July. It will now be held from 5 to 8 July 2022 (Tuesday to Friday) at the Cologne Exhibition Centre. www.dach-holz.com IWF 2022 Of all the inquiries that arise among attendees at the International Woodworking Fair, “What’s new at IWF?” is the most frequently asked. One answer in a nutshell: the Challengers Award Entries. Every product, technology or solution entered is making its first appearance at an IWF show. Challengers Award Entries represent innovative technology in products, services, or manufacturing techniques that will advance wood manufacturing. Twenty-one finalists in the competition will be announced in the weeks running up to opening day, and seven winners in the competition will be unveiled on the morning of August 23, opening day of IWF 2022. Just a few examples from among these firsttimers are new product brands, including two from that casegoods manufacturing hotbed, Jasper, IN: Robotic Solutions, a developer of robotic and automated materials handling systems and Cabentry, a software company making its debut at IWF. Other new names among First-time Exhibitors are IMMCO, a Richmond, VA manufacturer of Uniflow hot melt drum unloaders and distributor of Meler gluing solutions; and Swiss firm Rollomatic, which has established its U.S. operations in Mundelein, IL, and offers Strausek cutting and grinding tools, among other offerings. Also listed among First-Time Exhibitors are some familiar names, under new owners or distributor relationships, such as Gannomat-Akins, now owned and distributed by Wurth Baer Supply; and Altendorf, which has established itself as an independent global brand, launching Altendorf Group America in 2019, exhibiting at IWF 2022. Altendorf has developed “Hand Guard” technology for its sliding table saws, a protection system that prevents serious injuries by instantly halting saw blade rotation upon skin contact. Also booked for IWF 2022 is Huber Engineered Woods. Huber is a name familiar for edgeband adhesives; this sister division supplies materials for construction and architectural interiors. And Web-Cab is exhibiting under its own banner for the first time. Its Production Coach technology distributed by RSA Solutions won a 2018 Challengers Award. IWF 2022 opens Tuesday, August 23 and runs through Friday, August 26 at the Georgia World Congress Center. www.iwfatlanta.com No. 1 • March 2022 33
