 Dubai Woodshow 2007, the dedicated wood and wood machinery exhibition in the Middle East, will feature an extensive European line-up, headlined by the European Federation of Woodworking Machinery Manufacturers (Eumabois), the foremost international trade association for the European wood industry. Organisers of the Dubai Woodshow, Strategic Marketing & Exhibitions, have signed an exclusive partnership agreement with Eumabois to jointly promote Dubai Woodshow.
Eumabois is the federation of 13 European national associations representing the largest manufacturers of machinery and accessories in Europe for the wood industry. The 800 manufacturers cooperating with Eumabois account for an annual production of more than 53.2 billion EUR, which represents close to 60 per cent of global production of wood working machinery and tools.
“The support of Eumabois is representative of our focus and commitment to position Dubai Woodshow as the only platform for opportunities and serious business for wood trade in the region. As the leading player in the European woodworking industry, Eumabois certainly has a lot to offer in terms of modern technologies and innovative products for the growing construction and real estate sector in the UAE and the neighboring GCC states,” said Dawood Al Shezawi, Managing Director, Strategic Marketing & Exhibitions. “Today, leading companies across the globe are looking to the Middle East as the new growth market and are seeking to tap the opportunities presented by the construction boom throughout the region. A highly specialized show like Dubai Woodshow will go a long way in helping to take advantage of this global interest in the Middle East market.”
Dubai Woodshow 2007, which is also supported by the Dubai Chamber of Commerce and Industry (DCCI), American Hardwood Export Council (AHEC) and Czech Woodworking Machinery Manufacturers Association (CWMMA), provides an excellent platform for regional and international companies to showcase their latest wood machinery and woodworking products to business prospects and build new strategic relationships with buyers, traders and investors. The show made its debut in April 2006 against a backdrop of heightened demand for wood and woodworking products in the Middle East, mainly due to sharp increase in construction activities across the region.
“Wood imports to the UAE stand at an all-time high and with other regional countries witnessing a similar surge in wood consumption, a comprehensive trade fair like Dubai Woodshow will serve to add further momentum to the strong growth of the wood and wood machinery industry in the Middle East,” said Gianni Ghizzoni, President of Eumabois. “In line with Eumabois' strategy, the decision has been made to avoid too many events being scheduled, which would only take up the time of exhibiting companies. Instead a single trade show will take place where high technological content of the sector is made visible to potential users and trade visitors. Dubai Woodshow 2007 will help us to explore partnerships from the Middle East region and showcase our quality equipment, machinery, tools and products for the region’s woodworking industry.”
