EXPOBOIS had consolidated its position as the show the industry can’t afford to miss. The 2012 edition played host to 302 exhibitors for four days, with over 20,000 visitors.

The first EXPOBOIS Trophies have been given on the show the 8th February 2012 to reward products with distinctive performances and qualities.

The 2012 edition of EXOPBOIS is marked by numerous events which punctuate the trade show. Through demonstrations, conferences, EXPOBOIS Awards, an exhibition or even daily talks, visitors will be able to discover the latest innovations in the wood industry but also be informed of the issues, the stakes and the perspectives within it.

The first EXPOBOIS Awards will be awarded during the show to reward those products showcasing outstanding performance and innovative qualities.

"Improving quality and traceability of timber purchases is a crucial issue for the industry", according to L’Observatoire du Bois 2011.

"Companies working in the wood industry, covering all sizes and all sectors, are actively recruiting but they are lamenting the lack of candidates coming forward for jobs", according to the results of the survey into recruitment conducted in October 2011 for EXPOBOIS.

Among the events put forward at the show, Innovathèque is showcasing some of the latest innovations in agro-sourced materials in an exhibition entitled "Matières à cultiver" (growing materials). It will be featuring some 60 innovative timber products and others made of plant fibre.
