21th International Forestry Trade Fair Lucerne from 18 to 21 August 2011 Tradition and innovation

There are few trade fairs comparable with the Forestry Trade Fair Lucerne. It isn`t only Switzerland`s leading trade fair for the forestry industry with international prominence, but also a key social meeting point for the forestry and timber industry as well as its suppliers. With 30,000 visitors and 280 exhibitors taking up a total floor area of 30,000 m2, the Forestry Trade Fair has developed continually since first being held in 1971. It remains the industry`s most highly regarded exhibition and combines tradition with innovation. All the latest developments in equipment and processes concerned with the forestry and timber industry will be exhibited. The main attraction at the Forestry Trade Fair is always the "Forst, Forêt, Foresta" special show, organised jointly as a common platform by key national associations and training providers.
