SCM Group, the biggest Italian group in the woodworking machinery industry, announced they will exhibit at the next Xylexpo. Their participation in the international industry exhibition fits into a strategy of strong development and innovation that the Rimini-based group is pursuing in different markets. While pursuing its expansion strategy through extensive operations on a global scale, SCM Group keeps a strong focus on the Italian market, which has been searching for the quality and reliability offered by the SCM brand for over 60 years.

An impressive installation covering 2,600 square meters will represent the comeback of Scm Group at the next Xylexpo, the biennial international exhibition of the wood and furniture industry, to be held at FieraMilano-Rho from Tuesday 24 to Saturday 28 May, 2016.

This long-awaited news will be one of the focal points of the event, celebrating its 25th edition in 2016. “We were extremely satisfied when we were informed of Scm Group’s decision”, said Lorenzo Primultini, President of Acimall, the Italian association of Italian woodworking technology manufacturers, which organizes the exhibition. “We can only be grateful for their decision to come back to Milan together with the entire Italian and international community, contributing to making Xylexpo an even bigger and richer showcase, a reference event for the presentation of ideas and innovations for wood and furniture companies all around the world”.

“The decision to attend the exhibition in Milan has been shared by many companies”, Primultini added. “They are the real protagonists of our show, putting their trust every two years into Xylexpo, into its capacity to attract international visitors and to be a place where – all together – we can build the future of our industry. Now we can say that the entire woodworking community will be at Xylexpo, with no exceptions. This is a great result that will call massive flows of operators to Milan, also supported by an economic situation that promises increasing satisfaction".

“Our Group is committed to a big expansion and growth plan in the major markets, and Italy is an important region. We believe in and we strongly support the development of Italian manufacturing technology, which represents a key reference for the international wood industry”, said Luigi De Vito, manager, Machinery Division, SCM Group. “By exhibiting at Xylexpo, we will be able to prove our commitment in this direction, presenting the widest and most innovative portfolio of machinery and advanced systems for the companies that process wood and other materials, such as plastics and composites, which are increasingly used for furniture components”.
