LIGNA

#LIGNA25 has something new coming your way: LIGNA.Circular! 🤗 It is a new format focusing on #circulartransformation in the woodworking and wood processing industry. The motto is "Thinking in Circles". Circularity and the resource cycle are two highly relevant topics for the woodworking community. And since #teamwork makes the dream work 😉, LIGNA partnered up with #CADEMI, founded by Christof Flötotto and Andre Hempel, both having quite an expertise in creating different formats in the furniture and furnishing industries. LIGNA.Circular wants to build a community by organizing moderated event formats, where best practices, potentials, and challenges related to circular value creation can be shared. Please get in touch with Stephanie or Christof and Andre, if you have any thoughts on LIGNA.Circular or would like to join us. Stay tuned for more info on LIGNA‘s new format through our exclusive media partner HK - Holz- und Kunststoffverarbeitung #circularity #resourcecycle #woodworking #ligna25 #circulareconomy

You are thinking about participating in LIGNA 2025, but you have limited resources? 🤔 It needs to be efficient and with a limited number of staff? ⁉ We have it all for you, so you will not miss out on the international LIGNA experience and get to present your company as best as possible. 👏   Taking part in our joint pavilions “Timber Construction”, “Logistics” or “Robotics” you benefit from a prepared booth that will be professionally managed for you and at the same time will be under the roof of thematically like-minded exhibitors. ✔   If you have any questions, reach out to us. Meike Sauer is happy to help!   #timberconstruction #prefabbuilding #robotics #logistics 

Pure goosebumps at the #WorldSkills Lyon 2024 when Felix Wilhelm went straight for the silver medal as well as the "Best of Nation" medal for Germany.🥈🏆 And just alongside him, Elias Kleespies comes fifth and receives a medal of excellence. This is what we call a HUGE success! Congratulations 👏 to both of you on behalf of the entire LIGNA team! You did an extraordinary job! 🎉 Let's catch up at #LIGNA25 in May next year so we can be a witness to both of your skills!

We can hardly contain our excitement because #LIGNA25 feels so close already! 👏 And although our two “designated speakers” in our 50 year anniversary teaser video would have liked to spread the cloak of silence over it (does anybody ever really like to watch oneself being filmed?), we would like to invite you all – exhibitors, partners, visitors and friends of LIGNA alike (and you might be more than just one of those at the same time) – to our special edition next year! 🎉   Here’s what’s currently happening for the 50th anniversary edition: ✔ The VDMA Woodworking Machinery has started planning the hall layout with confirmations of participation coming up starting November ✔ We are in the midst of bringing two new LIGNA formats to life – stay tuned. More info will come your way soon! ✔ We just had a great webinar with our global sales partners bringing everybody up to date and starting into visitor promotion. ✔Press Conference season has officially started – after Stephanie headed “West” and presented LIGNA in Atlanta/USA in August, this week LIGNA goes “East” and the LIGNA baton travels with Christian to Shanghai.   We could go on and on but will leave it at that: 50 years of LIGNA - together with the entire Woodworking Community we, VDMA and Deutsche Messe AG, celebrate this special anniversary and reflect on the past decades as well as on the industry‘s future. 🙌 Join us and be part of next year‘s show! 5️⃣ 0️⃣ #Woodworking #Anniversary #LIGNA25 #teamvdma #teamdmag

No tradeshow hustle and bustle at the moment, but there are still exhibition stands in the hall? Our service provider used an empty hall to build a few test set-ups. We took the chance to look at the different stand types and what options are available in future for #LIGNA.25.   While most of you prepare your participation with your own stand design and put great effort into the construction, there is always the opportunity to simplify your preparations with our all-in-one solutions to give you time for the essentials. Using our stand construction services for rental stands and fair-package solutions, you’ll discover some new upgrades in the selection.   Hurry up - hall planning of LIGNA.25 is underway!

History often has a way of repeating itself. However, if you take a closer look at LIGNA over the years, you can easily tell the way the industry pushed forward. 😍 Not a trace of repetition, quite the opposite. Continuous progress and ambitious entrepreneurship characterise LIGNA’s spirit. Companies developed innovative products and technologies and contributed in a major way to an ever growing market. And innovations are still the driving force behind the woodworking community today. ⚙️ If you would like to experience those magnificent companies in person, talk to their staff and take a look at the latest innovations and products, join us at #LIGNA25 And before the show opens from 26-30 May, 2025, feel free to browse through LIGNA’s history: https://lnkd.in/erUZUnqw #Anniversary #Woodworking #LIGNA25

The LIGNA baton travels on… True to our claim „Linking people, driving innovation“ our baton served it‘s purpose: representing the cooperation and partnership between people and in this case countries. While we work closely with the headquarters of our partners, it is also essential for us to know and meet with the experts of their most important markets alike. Thanks everybody for passing forward the #LIGNA25 spirit! While the Hanover team arrived back home fighting colds and lost luggage, our US colleague Karissa is doing her last rounds on the floor, the entire LIGNA team present in Atlanta wishes you all a safe trip back home after IWF! And don‘t forget: Next stop… LIGNA! May 26 - 30, 2025 ligna.de/en THANK YOU 💙🤍❤️from Karissa, Meike, Silke, and Stephanie

We. had. a. blast. Thank you to those shown in the pics, those tagged within, those we met in the aisles, the ones we talked to during the last two days, who invited us to their booths, gave their insights and opinions, asked us questions about the upcoming #LIGNA25, took part in our press briefing (special thanks to all media representatives attending!) and who - as always - made us welcome and part of this amazing industry. Atlanta, we loved being part of it. If we didn’t get the chance to see and talk to you, our colleague Karissa Hasser will still be at the show until Friday. Please reach out! Some impressions below - we enjoyed every minute of it. Your LIGNA Team

As the decades go by in history, technology evolves at #LIGNA. 🪵 Take a look at how the machines and different tools developed over the years. Sometimes you have to take the time to reminisce in order to appreciate how far the industry has come to date. Being proud of what has been achieved and the continuous progress is something that the woodworking community has clearly earned over the years! 💥😍 #Anniversary #Woodworking #50YearsLIGNA
