2             The new structure
As the World’s Leading Trade Fair for Woodworking and Wood Processing Machinery, Plant and Equipment,
LIGNA 2017 has been refined and improved for both exhibitors and trade visitors. The changes allow customers to
make better use of their time at the show, while the needs of exhibitors are fully and precisely met. In particular,
the merging of the three previous show categories “Solid Wood Working”, “Furniture Industry” and “Woodcraft
­Solutions” into the one display section “Tools and Machinery for Custom and Mass Production” makes for a more
 compact and clearly organized presentation. This saves visitors time and energy.

New developments, new technologies,
new topic areas
Why were these changes and adjustments necessary?
Technologies today are no longer tied to businesses of a
certain size. The new layout reflects this by putting like
with like. So, for example, the overlap between Surface
Technology and Wood Based Panel Production is made
clearer by siting the two sets of exhibits closer together.
Likewise the two sections Energy from Wood and Wood
Based Panel Production are also placed close together
                                                              for 2017. Where possible, exhibitors of technology for solid

22 26 May 2017 Hannover Germany ligna.de - Making more out of wood
2             The new structure
As the World’s Leading Trade Fair for Woodworking and Wood Processing Machinery, Plant and Equipment,
LIGNA 2017 has been refined and improved for both exhibitors and trade visitors. The changes allow customers to
make better use of their time at the show, while the needs of exhibitors are fully and precisely met. In particular,
the merging of the three previous show categories “Solid Wood Working”, “Furniture Industry” and “Woodcraft
­Solutions” into the one display section “Tools and Machinery for Custom and Mass Production” makes for a more
 compact and clearly organized presentation. This saves visitors time and energy.

New developments, new technologies,
new topic areas
Why were these changes and adjustments necessary?
Technologies today are no longer tied to businesses of a
certain size. The new layout reflects this by putting like
with like. So, for example, the overlap between Surface
Technology and Wood Based Panel Production is made
clearer by siting the two sets of exhibits closer together.
Likewise the two sections Energy from Wood and Wood
Based Panel Production are also placed close together
                                                              for 2017. Where possible, exhibitors of technology for solid
