The Wood Machinery Suppliers Association described its programme of activities at Ligna as a success.

The organisation this year offered a travel allowance of £200 to members to attend the show.

‘A total of 45 took up the opportunity which was an encouraging result,’ commented marketing and publicity officer Tamsin Hobster.

The WMSA also took a stand at the show to provide information about the organisation’s activities and promote wood machinery sales opportunities in the UK generally. It doubled as a base for Biele UK, Rotherwood Machinery and P&J Dust Extraction.

Other WMSA members with stands at Ligna were DISA, Fernite of Sheffield, Rye Technology, Scott & Sargeant, JJ Smith, Stewart Lumber, Stenner, Talbott’s and Titman Tip Tools.
