WOODTEC

International Fair for Wood Processing and Furniture Industry
After the first deadline, WOOD-TEC 2017 reports growth
The first deadline for exhibitors to register for WOOD-TEC 2017 was 31 May. Against the previous years, the status of the trade fair is very positive, and it can be assumed that WOOD-TEC will grow compared to previous years. Approximately one hundred exhibitors have registered; both major sectors – woodworking machines and components for furniture manufacturing – are very well represented. Among the registered exhibitors let us name for example Felder, Houfek, Tekma, Pilart or Bras. The exhibitors who registered so far will already occupy all the area available in two exhibition halls. Negotiations are still going on with additional exhibitors.
For this year's edition, the WOOD-TEC organizers are preparing further innovations and enrichment. The accompanying program in the WOOD-TEC arena will be divided into thematic blocks for the main groups of visitors. Expansion of cooperation with universities and secondary vocational schools and the WOOD-TEC Award exhibit contest are being prepared. The preparation of the accompanying program and the exhibit contest are ongoing and all the news will appear in July and August on the website of the fair. The fair is conceived as Czech-Slovak, and therefore the visitor campaign will focus mainly on the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Activities aimed at foreign visitors are being prepared in cooperation with the Association of Manufacturers of Woodworking Machines and Equipment.
The next deadline for WOOD-TEC 2017 will come up on 30 August. Exhibitors who register by this deadline will receive a 10% price reduction.
