Wood Transport & Logistics 2024, on from 22-23 May in New Zealand, will follow up on last year’s popular event.

These developments show an unprecedented level of innovation being seen in moving logs through the supply chain.

Wood transport faces the largest shift in technology we have ever seen. Transitions to new electric, hydrogen and diesel-hybrid powered heavy vehicles, including the integration of truck automation and platooning, are already happening.

There are also new innovations in log measurement, scheduling and logistics that are nothing short of phenomenal. Join us to hear the latest developments and be at the forefront of this conversion.

Last year, more than 250 forestry and log transport delegates from companies across Australasia, North and South America and Europe met up in Rotorua, New Zealand for the 2023 conference, workshops and exhibitions.

Wood Transport & Logistics 2024 is planned to run in Rotorua, New Zealand on 22-23 May 2024, the event will also be live streamed for those outside Australia or New Zealand. For more information including the speakers and workshops programs visit: https://innovatek.co.nz/hubs/wood-transport/
