OF THE GROUP OF TAUBERBISCHOFSHEIM, INTERPRETATE AT MOST LEVEL OF PROCESSING TECHNOLOGIES OF SOLID, INVOLVING SIGNIFICANTLY WOOD THE CONCEPT OR, BETTER, THE CONSTELLATION OF 4.0 FACTORY CONCEPTS. THE IMPRESSIVE BODY OF ECONOMIC AND TECHNOLOGICAL TOUR OFFERED TO THE PRESS INFORMATION HAVE DEMONSTRATED THAT THE CONCEPT OF RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT IN WEINIG IS TAKEN VERY SERIOUSLY AND LEADS THE MANUFACTURER OF FRANCONIA TO GIVE WAY TO THE WHOLE SECTOR AND THE

WORLD OF WOODWORKING BUT ALSO OF WORKING OF OTHER MATERIALS. DESPITE A MARKET SITUATION NOT PARTICULARLY POSITIVE (WE THINK MAINLY TO THE CLOSURE OF SEVERAL SIGNIFICANT ECONOMIC REGIONS FOR INTERNATIONAL POLITICAL REASONS AND INTERNAL CRISES) WEINIG SHOWED LAST YEAR A VERY POSITIVE RESULT. THE ABILITY TO RESPOND TO MARKET AND TO REMAIN CONSISTENT IN ITS DESIGN AND PRODUCTION PROCESS BRINGS THE GROUP TO MARK MORE AND MORE THE PATH OF WOODWORKING TECHNOLOGY.
