SMARTECH EVERYWHERE: AI POWERING THE FUTURE OF WOOD MANUFACTURING
Catch the Manewfacturing revolution at LIGNA 2025!
SMARTECH is everywhere – and for a good reason. As the wood panel industry evolves, manufacturers face rising material costs, growing sustainability demands, and an urgent shortage of skilled operators. SMARTECH is overcoming these industry challenges through AI-powered solutions that deliver real impact – across production lines and across the globe. At LIGNA 2025, SMARTECH takes centre stage, integrated into multiple partner booths including Hexion, Siempelkamp, and Andritz, alongside our own dedicated presence. This year’s theme – SMARTECH EVERYWHERE – is more than a slogan. It’s a reality made possible by our deep partnerships and our bold new chapter as part of Hexion. Since joining Hexion, SMARTECH has accelerated its innovation roadmap with expanded resources and R&D capabilities. The synergy between SMARTECH’s AI-driven systems and Hexion’s industry-leading chemistry creates a unique advantage: integrated solutions that optimise raw material use, increase profitability, and drive sustainable growth. With our SMARTWAX and SMARTMDI
Systems, manufacturers are already seeing dramatic reductions – up to 40% in wax and 15% in resin consumption, without compromising panel quality. Our solutions work in real time, learning and adapting from every panel produced to maximise efficiency and consistency.
But it’s not just about cutting costs. It’s
AI-Driven Autonomous Manufacturing – Boost performance and profitability with AI!
about empowering teams. And that brings us to one of the biggest challenges in today’s factories: training new operators quickly and effectively. That’s why we’re especially excited to launch a ground-breaking AI solution at LIGNA 2025 that improves panel quality while helping on-board new operators in record time. This innovation addresses a critical pain point in the industry and promises to bring confidence, clarity, and control to every shift on the production floor. Whether you’re focused on cost savings, quality control, or scaling your operations
with fast-tracked operator on-boarding, SMARTECH is your partner in smart production.
And there’s more to celebrate. SMARTECH was recently named “Smart Manufacturing Company of the Year” at the 2025 IoT Breakthrough Awards, a recognition of our commitment to digital transformation, operational excellence, and customer success. SMARTECH brings new technologies
to the manufacturing industry. We call it Manewfacturing!
