The countdown has begun for WoodTech Fair, one of the most comprehensive gatherings in the woodworking machinery sector in Eurasia. Arif Onur Kaçak, the Board Member and Secretary General of AIMSAD, stated in his assessment of the fair, which will be held between October 11–15, 2025, that the fair offers important opportunities for companies in terms of both product promotion and establishing new business connections.
Challenging market conditions make industry collaborations and the right contacts more critical than ever. Aiming to provide a strong response to this need, the WoodTech Fair will once again bring together the Turkish woodworking machinery industry under one roof at the Istanbul Tüyap Fair and Congress Center from October 11-15, 2025.
Arif Onur Kaçak, Member of the Board of Directors and Secretary General of AIMSAD, who shared his thoughts on the fair, pointed out that the WoodTech Fair is a platform that paves the way for multifaceted collaborations and said, “The WoodTech Fair, which is getting ready to open its doors for the 38th time this year, continues to be the most comprehensive and powerful meeting point for the Turkish woodworking machinery sector. From the latest technologies to innovative solutions, and from machinery and equipment to systems that optimize production processes, everything the sector may need is available under one roof at this fair. I believe the WoodTech Fair offers an opportunity not to be missed for all sector professionals seeking to gain a closer understanding of Türkiye’s dynamic and high-quality production capabilities.”
“Nearly 100 AIMSAD members are preparing for the WoodTech Fair”
Kaçak pointed out that approximately 100 companies that are members of AIMSAD will have booths at the fair, which will be held in an area of approximately 40,000 square meters, and said, “WoodTech, which has been keeping its finger on the pulse of the Turkish woodworking machinery sector and shaping the sector since it was first organized, is a fair that our member companies prepare for with great dedication every year. This year as well, despite the current economic challenges, our companies are managing an intensive preparation process to showcase their brands, products, and services in the most effective manner at the fair.”
Arif Onur Kaçak emphasized the variety of products exhibited at the WoodTech Fair, saying, “At the WoodTech Fair, woodworking machines and equipment, surface treatment machines and equipment, packaging machines and equipment, conveyors, transportation and storage equipment, cutting and holder tools, dust collection, ventilation and filtration systems, drying ovens, impregnation systems, and energy boilers, as well as software solutions, will all be showcased under one roof. For furniture manufacturers, sub-industry firms, engineers, architects, and investors who regularly attend the fair each year, this diversity is an important factor directly influencing decision-making processes.”
“AIMSAD will be at the fair together with the sector”
Finally, Kaçak stated that AIMSAD will also be present at the fair and stated, “At our stand, you can learn about the work carried out by our association and discuss the latest developments in the sector directly with us. As the AIMSAD team, we are pleased to meet with everyone who wishes to contribute to the sector.
