On Friday, October 14th, the XIA-Xylexpo Innovation Awards were assigned for the fourth edition. The awards have become a traditional event of the biennial international exhibition of wood and furniture industry technology, closing on Saturday 15. The award included five categories – solid wood, panels, finishing, digitalization and sustainability – and required an intensive work for the jury who accurately evaluated all the entries to assign the Xylexpo “Oscar”, a “dwarf” designed in 2014 – when the award was originally introduced – by Elio Fiorucci for Riva 1920.

Here comes Xylexpo, at last! After a four-year-long wait, the biennial international exhibition of technology for the wood and furniture industry is back at FieraMilano-Rho from 12 to 15 October, concurrently with 33.BI-MU and Viscom Italia. Halls 22 and 24 of the Milan fairgrounds, covering more than 36 thousand square meters, will host 280 exhibitors, one third from abroad, presenting a comprehensive review of the most advanced technology, from primary operation to surface finishing.

The Xylexpo 2022 App with lots of useful information for planning your visit to the fair is now available. The app is free and downloadable from the Apple and Android stores.
