LAS-EXPO 2027: Machinery in action, premiere technologies, and the business driving the forestry and wood industry

LAS-EXPO is one of the most important gatherings for the forestry and wood sector in Poland. The record-breaking 2026 show—the largest ever in terms of exhibition space—confirmed that, for the industry, this is the ultimate venue to witness modern machinery in action, engage with equipment manufacturers and distributors, and build lasting relationships that translate into business success.

The 26th Timber Industry and Forest Resources Management Fair is already shaping up to be an event full of premieres, live machines and business meetings that set the directions for the development of the forestry and timber industry.

A record-breaking timber industry expo

The 25th LAS-EXPO demonstrated the event’s power and its importance for the market. The exhibition and the accompanying Agrotech agricultural technology trade fair hosted nearly 80,000 people from Poland and abroad. As part of LAS-EXPO, companies from Poland, Slovenia, Germany, the Czech Republic, and Italy presented their offers. The exhibition focused heavily on solutions for timber harvesting, transport, and processing, as well as modern forest management.

"Professionals from the forest management and timber industry come here to discover the latest technologies, exchange expertise, and build networks.  The trade fair is highly valued by visitors and exhibitors alike.  Companies are already declaring their participation in the 2027 edition," emphasises Dąbrowska, LAS-EXPO Project Manager.

LAS-EXPO in action. The machines working live

The Kielce event stands out for its live machinery demonstrations. This is particularly vital for entrepreneurs making investment decisions who want to evaluate the efficiency, ergonomics, and functionality of specific solutions.

In 2027, the centrepiece of the exhibition will once again feature dynamic presentations, technology showcases, and tailored solutions for forestry service providers, wood processing plants, sawmills, timber yards, and entities involved in forest resource management.

Premieres, new products and proven solutions

The enduring value of LAS-EXPO lies in its presentation of market novelties. 2026 expo’s major highlight was the premiere of the TigerCat 1165 harvester at the Aurox stand, which was honoured with the Targi Kielce Gold Medal. Visitors also discovered the latest TTX-450 double-shaft circular resaw from Amix, alongside cutting-edge solutions from Husqvarna, including the 564 XP chainsaw, the 590 BTS blower, and the company's latest battery-powered equipment.

LAS-EXPO 2027 will once again serve as the launchpad for premieres, technological showcases, and discussions on market development trends. The spotlight will be on machinery, tools, low-emission and noise-reducing technologies, efficiency-boosting solutions, and systems tailored to the precise needs of the forestry and wood sectors.

Business liaisons with target audiences - buyers of machines and technologies

For exhibitors, direct contact with professional visitors is of paramount importance: forestry contractors, representatives of wood processing plants, distributors, machine operators, service company owners, institutional representatives, and procurement and investment decision-makers.

The high turnout, the practical nature of the trade fair, and the presence of a highly targeted industry audience ensure that participation translates into fruitful relationships, new leads, and highly effective commercial negotiations.

The National State Forest Holding supports LAS-EXPO 

The event at Targi Kielce also provides a vital space for dialogue between business, science, and the institutions responsible for forest management. For 25 years, the event has been supported by the State Forests (Lasy Państwowe), which present their key initiatives related to forest protection, education, and the advancement of modern forestry. As a result, LAS-EXPO remains the definitive forum for discussions on the future of the forestry and wood industry.

LAS-EXPO 2027 – be a vital part of the industry

Preparations for the 26th LAS-EXPO are already well underway. From 12 to 14 March at Targi Kielce, it will be a prime time for technological premieres, live machinery demonstrations, and invaluable business encounters. If you operate in the forestry or wood industry, Kielce is the place you simply cannot afford to miss.
