Woodworking machines are specialized devices designed for use in workshops to cut, saw, plane, or drill wood for the production of furniture. These machines are typically powered by electric motors or operate mechanically, playing a crucial role in providing precise dimensions and shapes to woodwork projects. Woodworking machinery is extensively used in converting raw wood materials into structural products such as plywood, boards, and beams, which find applications in construction, shipbuilding, furniture production, and other industries.
The main types of products within woodworking machinery include thickness planers, grinding machines, chain or chisel mortisers, routers, wood lathes, and others. Thickness planers are utilized to remove wood from the surface of boards, either to create smooth and flat surfaces or to reduce their thickness. These machines operate based on different principles, including mechanical and electrical, and are available through both online and offline sales channels. Woodworking machinery is employed across various verticals, including the furniture industry, construction sector, and others.

This woodworking machinery global market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The woodworking machinery market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $31.57 billion in 2024 to $34.22 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to construction and real estate boom, furniture manufacturing demand, wood processing industries, craftsmanship and artisanal woodwork, renovation, and remodeling trends.
The woodworking machinery market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $45.84 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing global construction projects, evolving furniture designs, technological integration, green building practices, global economic recovery. Major trends in the forecast period include innovations in wood finishing technologies, digitalization of design and production processes, customization and personalization trends, integration of augmented reality (AR) for training and design, shift towards compact and space-efficient machines.
The ongoing expansion of the construction industry is anticipated to drive the growth of the woodworking machinery market in the coming years. The construction industry encompasses the planning, designing, development, and construction of structures and infrastructure. Woodworking machinery plays a crucial role in construction by enabling the precise shaping, cutting, and assembling of wooden components, which are essential for producing doors, windows, furniture, and other architectural elements integral to building projects. For example, in October 2023, the United States Census Bureau reported that the number of privately owned housing units approved by building permits in February reached 1,524,000 on a seasonally adjusted annual basis, marking a 13.8% increase compared to the corrected January rate of 1,339,000. Thus, the growing expansion of the construction sector is fueling the demand for woodworking machinery.
The rise in infrastructure development is expected to significantly boost the growth of the woodworking machinery market in the coming years. Infrastructure development encompasses the planning, design, construction, and maintenance of vital physical and organizational structures, facilities, and systems that support the functioning of society, regions, or industries. Woodworking machinery plays a crucial role in this sector by facilitating the production of essential components such as formwork, scaffolding, and architectural elements necessary for construction projects. These machines enable precise cutting, shaping, and assembly of wooden materials, which are essential for creating durable and customized structures within the broader context of infrastructure development. For instance, in March 2023, Global X ETF, a US-based fund management firm, highlighted that the United States is making a significant investment in its infrastructure through the $1.2 trillion Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA). Over the next decade, the IIJA plans to allocate $550 billion towards enhancing roads, bridges, airports, and railroads, expanding access to clean drinking water and broadband internet, and promoting environmental justice. Thus, the surge in infrastructure development is driving the growth of the woodworking machinery market.
Major companies in the woodworking machinery sector are focusing on developing innovative products such as CNC machines. CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machines are automated manufacturing devices utilizing computerized systems to control precise machining operations on various materials. For instance, Comeva, a Spain-based woodworking machinery company, launched the NICRON 5X CNC machines in November 2022. These machines are designed for medium and large companies seeking enhanced productivity, offering precision and efficiency for applications such as door machining, cutting and machining boards, and versatile woodworking tasks.
A strategy employed by major woodworking machinery companies involves the development of new products such as angle grinders to enhance competitiveness. Angle grinders, handheld power tools used for grinding, cutting, and polishing, are among the innovative products introduced by companies such as Robert Bosch GmbH. In January 2023, Bosch launched the GWS 800 Professional angle grinder, featuring a powerful 800W motor, lightweight ergonomic design, and specialized features catering to the Indian market. This product is designed to provide superior grinding and cutting experiences, considering the average palm size of an Indian user for increased comfort and reduced fatigue during overhead applications. Additionally, features such as a metal flange and high-quality carbon brush contribute to durability and ease of maintenance across various applications.
