A path of strong and continuous growth. Ligna, the biennial exhibition in Hannover for woodworking technology, was a time to ‘take stock’ at SCM, the Rimini-based group specialized in woodworking solutions. In 2022, Scm Group recorded a turnover of 850 million euro (plus 14 percent on 2021) and orders totalled around 900 million.
The SCM Wood Division surpassed 600 million, again recording double-figure growth on the previous year and continues to gain global market shares in the woodworking industry: plus 1.5 percent from 2018 to 2021 with further advancement expected for 2022 while waiting for the final balance figures for the sector. A positive financial statement despite uncertainties and complexities linked to the supply chain, the rising cost of energy and raw materials and the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. “All thanks to the Italian Group’s continuous investment into R&D (7 percent of the annual turnover), the upgrading of production sites in Italy and the development of markets and customer care that SCM continues to push ahead with in 2023“, explained the company in the press release.
