Our CEO, Theodoros Athanasiadis, shares what’s next for XYLOKAT as we enter our fourth decade.
Dear partners,
Our recent participation in interzum went far beyond a typical trade show appearance. It signalled the beginning of a new chapter for XYLOKAT.
interzum stands as the leading global meeting point for professionals working with materials used in furniture production – bringing together manufacturers, suppliers and decision-makers to explore what’s next for the industry.
In this fast-paced, forward-looking environment, our presence stood out. Much more than exhibiting materials, we shared our vision. We revealed a fresh direction for the company and reaffirmed our commitment to delivering high-quality, specialized surface solutions tailored to the needs of professionals.
New launches, expanded potential
For the first time, we showcased our latest line of Lacquered Panels with Special Veneers, created for immediate use in interior and furniture applications, with no compromise on quality or design.
This product line was made possible thanks to our investment in a state-of-the-art production unit in Thessaloniki. Equipped with advanced technology and automation, this facility allows us to offer premium finishing options that save professionals time and add significant value to their projects.
We also introduced four fresh colours by Tabu®, perfectly aligned with today’s style trends.
The response from visitors confirmed it: these panels are exactly what today’s designers and manufacturers are looking for.
Surfaces that transform spaces
Once again, our 3D Textured Panels attracted strong interest. Visitors had the chance to see and feel how these surfaces interact with light, transforming simple walls and furniture into dynamic elements of design.
The Flexy Panels - adaptable versions of our 3D Textured Panels and Special Veneers, ideal for curved applications - were featured as well. The interest they generated reminded us that innovation means staying open to fresh ideas and designing without limits.
Celebrating 30 years – building what’s next
This year, XYLOKAT celebrates 30 years of continuous growth, trust and deep industry knowledge.
Looking ahead, we’re focused on entering new markets, expanding our capabilities and supporting our partners with smart, time-saving solutions that fuel their creativity. At the same time, we’re taking meaningful steps toward sustainability, from waste reduction practices to greater transparency in our supply chain.
Through it all, we remain grounded in the values that have shaped us since day one: an unwavering commitment to quality and our promise of “Surfaces Shaping Spaces.”
