Panguaneta at the Exhibition “From Seeds to Food” for FAO’s 80th anniversary: poplar as a source of value and development

From 8 to 13 October 2025, Panguaneta was involved in “From Seeds to Food”, an exhibition organised to celebrate FAO’s 80th anniversary and hosted in the evocative setting of the Terme di Caracalla park in Rome, as part of the World Food Forum.

The company contributed exhibits and original content illustrating to the poplar plywood production cycle, tracing the journey from forestry management and clone selection to the transformation of wood into high-quality panels.

Through a five-stage exhibition route, visitors were guided step by step through the lifecycle of poplar wood – from its early growth to its industrial transformation – discovering, in an immersive way, how a carefully selected young tree can become a refined, versatile and high-value raw material.

Curated by the Forestry Division of IPC (International Commission on Poplars and Other Fast-Growing Trees Sustaining People and the Environment), the initiative highlighted the technologies and innovations behind the entire poplar supply chain – from scientific research and cultivation to advanced processing and the development of high-performance products.

Panguaneta’s participation reaffirms the company’s commitment to promoting poplar as a truly circular resource — one capable of generating economic, social, and environmental value.
