FURNITURE SHOWS 2018 SO FAR – NO NEWS IS WOOD NEWS

For people in the European furniture industry a new year always begins like this: The last late New Year's Eve rockets have just burned down, the resolutions are still fresh - the bags are packed and off we go to Cologne, to the IMM (Internationale Möbelmesse) and then, usually without taking a breath, straight on to Paris for the Salon Maison et Objet.

Every year, people throw themselves enthusiastically into the colorful crowd, visit novelties, look for trends, meet many familiar faces and new contacts alike. Every year, it seems like a big, loud class reunion, combined with a half marathon through the many halls and every year another resolution: Eating healthy food at next year's exhibition.

For Danzer, the impressions gained at both fairs were very positive in two respects.

3D-Veneer for Everyone!

The first good news: Our baby ‘Danzer 3D-Veneer’ has grown really big! It has long ceased to be an exotic material that only a few brave manufacturers experimented with.

Meanwhile, 3D-Veneer has arrived at numerous furniture brands, has been proven and established. It is striking that it is used by very differently positioned manufacturers. The possibilities offered by 3D-Veneer BASIC in material costing make the third dimension attractive not only for premium brands.

We are proud of the many beautiful designs that are only made possible with Danzer 3D-Veneer.
