The upcoming edition of the Carrefour International du Bois, taking place on 2–4 June in Nantes, France, is set to further reinforce its role as a key international hub for the timber industry, with several new features designed to elevate the visitor experience.
Bringing together 630 exhibitors, the event also stands out for its conference programme, curated around the sector’s most pressing challenges. From timber construction innovations to regulatory developments and shifting market dynamics, the sessions offer a sharp, forward-looking perspective. The full programme will be available online, allowing visitors to tailor their agenda in advance. Highlights for 2026 include a dedicated bio-based materials area and an innovation space showcasing the latest industry breakthroughs.
Alongside this, the complete exhibitor list will be published by the end of the month on timbershow.com, offering a comprehensive overview of the event’s international reach. Organised by hall, it reflects the full value chain — from forestry to finished construction products.
Accessibility remains a major advantage. Nantes is easily reached via direct flights from several UK airports, while rail connections provide efficient alternatives. The Eurostar links London to Paris, followed by a two-hour high-speed TGV journey.
More than a trade fair, the event positions itself as both a business platform and a knowledge hub for the European timber sector.
