HOLZ-HANDWERK and FENSTERBAU FRONTALE 2024 on the balance sheet

After a period of uncertainty, the HOLZ-HANDWERK and FENSTERBAU FRONTALE pair of fairs has returned to its usual spring schedule. The event, held at the Nuremberg Exhibition Center, attracted an impressive 75,000 visitors from 112 countries, bringing together 973 exhibitors from 44 countries. It was a networking space for discussions on current industry topics such as trends in window, door and façade construction, woodworking and the wood industry.

Over the four days, participants had the opportunity to explore new products and technologies, make valuable industry contacts and confront current challenges such as sustainability, protection against climate extremes or the shortage of skilled labor. Perhaps precisely because of this, of the tense situation in the German construction industry, HOLZ-HANDWERK and FENSTERBAU FRONTALE attracted a significant number of visitors from the joinery, joinery, architecture and window and facade construction sectors from all over the world.

"We are very pleased that HOLZ-HANDWERK had such a great turnout despite the economic conditions in the construction industry and that we were able to once again present all the operational requirements of the joinery industry, and thus the entire woodworking value chain," said Stefan Dittrich, Managing Director HOLZ-HANDWERK, NürnbergMesse.

FENSTERBAU FRONTALE 2024 presented many innovations and highlights. The latest profile systems, glass in architecture, fastening technology, security systems and much more were presented by the 644 exhibitors. "FENSTERBAU FRONTALE has once again demonstrated its position as the world's leading trade fair for windows, doors and facades and is the central meeting point for visitors from all over the world in search of the latest topics and solutions for key industry challenges," said Elke Harreiß, Executive Director FENSTERBAU FRONTALE, NürnbergMesse.

Both fairs were complemented by a comprehensive support program, offering many valuable ideas on current industry topics. The extension of the trade fair experience into the digital realm through YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook and Instagram channels underlines the organizers' commitment to staying connected with the community and providing information, trends and updates about their respective fairs.
