The lead event for the forestry industry
Founded back in 1977, Elmia Wood has a simple goal – place Swedish manufacturers and suppliers on the map where the forestry industry is concerned. Today, the international exhibition has not only met this goal, but transformed into the biggest platform for innovation in Europe. Visitors are first to see brand new machinery and equipment revealed by brands and showcased to their fullest potential. Live demonstrations are the bread and butter of Elmia Wood. Exhibitors get to bring out their biggest and best to showcase what they can do in field conditions. The product portfolio is extensive and covers brush cutters, chippers, trailers with loading facilities, tree saws, grippers, precipitators, harvesters, moulding cutters, mulch-cutters and off-road vehicles.
