 Tuesday, December 19, 2023

Italian Woodworking Technology Association, widely known as ACIMALL has recently published a fruitful result on woodworking technology exports. There is a positive sign in front of the latest result related to the export. In fact, a +9.4 percent was recorded in the first half of 2023, confirming the sector’s growth.

This growth is aligned with Salvador’s vocation for the foreign market, which has developed a solid sales network abroad over the years, in addition to an established presence in the Italian market. A network that has allowed the company to export and have its machines appreciated worldwide.

So, let’s get an insight on the data of the latest ACIMALL report, Salvador’s international vocation, and the reasons for this success.

Exports of woodworking technologies increase: +9.4 percent

As written in the opening, export flows of woodworking technologies continue to be positive. In the first half of 2023, growth was stable and registered +9.4 percent compared to a year ago, with a real export value of 854 million euros. But let’s go deeper into detail.

Among the top ten destination countries for Italian exports, the United States largely maintains the first position in terms of economic value, but marks -7.3% compared to 2022. France, with +6.3%, and Germany with +11.9%, on the other hand, follow with more encouraging results. Exports to China also resume growth after a slight decrease in the first quarter of the year. A value that bodes well along with India’s numbers.

Upon inspecting the imports of machinery, Salvador has observed a 3.3% rise in value, reaching 125 million euros, highlighting domestic demand too.

Machine and service quality: a recipe for exporting

The preference for Salvador machines recorded abroad is motivated by several factors, which can be traced to product and service excellence.
