MEXICO – Under new management – Deutsche Messe –  this year’s Magna Expo Mueblera featured 210 exhibitors from around the world, including countries such as China, Germany, Italy, Canada, Spain, the USA and Austria.

Together with their local Mexican counterparts, the international companies showcased an array of innovative products and solutions at Mexico City’s Centro Citibanamex convention and exhibition center.

Visitors to Magna Expo Mueblera 2018, consisting of two flagship fairs, Magna Expo Mueblera Industrial and Magna Expo Mobiliario e Interiores,  were also greeted with a new format, that included country pavillions and live product demos.

“This Magna Expo Mueblera was more international than ever,” commented Christian Pfeiffer, Deutsche Messe’s Global Director LIGNA and Woodworking Events. “The new tradeshow format proved to be a resounding success: The live demonstrations of processing machines and the supporting program comprising a Technology Park and conference were extremely well received by attendees. That the exhibitor lineup included many international market leaders such as Altendorf GmbH, Biesse Group, Felder Group, Leitz GmbH & Co. KG, SCM Group, Stiles Machinery Inc. (Homag) and Michael Weinig AG/Holzher, also speaks volumes. And we were also very pleased to see three new national pavilions – from Germany, China and Sweden.”
