International Woodworking Fair

The International Woodworking Fair was recently held in Atlanta at the Georgia World Congress Center. This event draws attendees and manufacturers from around the world. There are networking opportunities, continuing education classes and the trade show floor. We always make a point to attend this trade show. It is a great opportunity to learn about new products, hardware, finishes and equipment. A couple of things that caught my eye this year were:

1.      Electronic locks for cabinets-keypad or finger activated, this is a great option for securing valuables or important papers

2.      Hardware-great looking new styles and finishes. So many options!

3.      Finishes-technology has brought wood finishing a long way and there are a lot of paint and stain options now.

4.      Feet-Osborne Wood Products has some great new acrylic and metal feet options. I can’t wait to use these on some upcoming projects.

These were the items that stood out to me but there was sooooo much to look at and see. It can be overwhelming but we’ve learned what we need to see over the years of attending this trade show and the best way to take it all in. Can’t wait for the show in 2020! Have any questions?
