CZECH REPUBLIC - At the Wood-Tec trade fair held in Brünn, Czech Republic, from October 31 to November 3, Leitz was distinguished for its BrillianceCut circular sawblade.

Under the patronage of Eumabois, Wood-Tec in its fifteenth edition received more than 11,000 visitors, and presented 319 exhibiting companies from 18 countries.

The aim of the Wood-Tec Award is to highlight the innovations, presented by the exhibiting companies at the fair. In this edition Leitz was awarded for its BrillianceCut circular sawblade in the category of machines, assets, tools and accessories. This sawblade provides very smooth cutting surfaces, as well as cutting edges completely free of nicks when processing acrylic glass, Corian® and many other materials. Now, grinding after trimming can be eliminated, making the production process more efficient thus saving a lot of time and money for the users. Already in July 2017, Leitz got the Visionary Award on the AWFS in Las Vegas for the BrillianceCut circular sawblade.
