Many Italian and international companies have already submitted their registration to the next edition of Xylexpo 2026, the biennial international exhibition for the wood and furniture industries scheduled at FieraMilano-Rho next June 9 to 12.
The early-bird benefits offered to companies registering within November 30 have worked also this year, driving many companies to speed up their registration despite the “wait-and-see” mood that is affecting also the global industry of technology for wood and furniture.
“The next edition of Xylexpo – said exhibition director Dario Corbetta – will keep its promise of setting up an international event that provides a clear view of “made in Italy”. The event will have a dual approach: on one side, a place where Italian companies have their own “home exhibition”, what we now call the “comfort zone”; on the other, an opportunity for companies from all around the world to get directly in touch with the Italian market, one of the most relevant on a global scale.”
The focus topics for the events scheduled during the four-day exhibition are set. The first day will be dedicated to wood construction; the highlight will be the first edition of Holzbau Forum Italia at Xylexpo, presenting an agenda focused on the closer and closer integration of technology, design and construction. The topic of the second day will be drying, featuring the presentation of the new “Drying handbook” by Conlegno and the University of Florence. On day three, the spotlights will be cast onto finishing technology and products, while the last day will be dedicated to tools. The agenda will include more events, presentations, interviews, testimonials and insights in collaboration with institutes, universities and experts.
A rich calendar is also being defined for Composites Future, the expo & conference dedicated to technologies and materials for composites, making its debut In Hall 18 in collaboration with Plast, the exhibition of technology for the plastic and rubber industry, held concurrently. The morning program for Wednesday 10, Thursday 11 and Friday 12 will feature the “Composites Future Academy”, talking about materials, modeling of innovative materials and the related technology. On the same days, the afternoon session will be dedicated to the “Composites Future Demo Area”, offering the opportunity to experience the production of composite materials and presentations of modeling and processing methods for composites.
