LIGNA is the wood processing industry's leading trade show, and took place on May 11–15, 2015, in Hanover.

On the very first day of the show, a business development delegation from the Nordschwarzwald region visited the LEUCO booth. On a tour, LEUCO managing directors Frank Diez and Daniel Schrenk explained the company's innovations to the delegation. One highlight was the live demo of the innovative diamond-tipped, whisper-quiet LEUCO nn-System circular saw blade.

"The companies in the Nordschwarzwald region greatly contribute to worldwide innovation in the wood and furniture industries. We can be very proud of that!" said regional administrator Dr. Klaus Michael. 
 
LEUCO's corporate headquarters are in the German city of Horb am Neckar, in the Freudenstadt district, at the gateway to the Black Forest. LEUCO has been closely associated with the Nordschwarzwald region since its founding in 1954.
