Connecting the wood machinery and supplies industry for success in North America: The Wood Industry Association (WIA) was established in January 2024 following the merger of WMMA & WMIA. They merged to provide one unified voice for the wood machinery industry in North America, more resources to invest in member programs, safety standards and public policy, expanded committee and volunteer opportunities, and greater efficiency through streamlined operations and fewer redundancies.
WIA's mission is to improve management operations, marketing programs, sales techniques, merchandising and distribution functions of those engaged in the domestic or foreign manufacture of woodworking machinery and ancillary equipment or supplies and/or the sale of such equipment or supplies in North America.
WIA owns and sponsors the International Woodworking Fair (IWF) - North America's largest woodworking technology & design trade show and a top destination for the global woodworking sector.
