CABINET VISION Wizard Award
Celebrating innovation, automation and intelligent manufacturing
Planit Australia is proud to introduce an exciting new industry initiative: the CABINET VISION Wizard Award. A recognition program designed to celebrate the most forward-thinking cabinetry manufacturers across Australia.
As technology continues to reshape the woodworking and cabinetry sector, businesses are increasingly embracing smarter, more efficient ways to design, manufacture, and deliver their products. The CABINET VISION Wizard Award shines a spotlight on those leading this movement; showcasing companies that are not only adopting digital tools but mastering them to drive real business outcomes.
At its core, the award recognises excellence in two key areas: Automation and Intelligence. From streamlined workflows and CNC integration to advanced parametric design and rule-based engineering, entrants will demonstrate how they are leveraging CABINET VISION to reduce manual processes, minimise errors, and unlock new levels of productivity.
But this award is about more than just technology, it’s about impact. Judges will be looking for businesses that can clearly demonstrate measurable improvements, whether through time saved, increased output, enhanced consistency, or scalable growth. Innovation and creative problem-solving will also play a key role, particularly where companies have pushed beyond standard workflows to develop unique, customised solutions.
To enter, participants are invited to submit a short video (2–4 minutes) showcasing their operation in action. This visual format allows businesses to bring their processes to life, highlighting automation on the factory floor, intelligent design systems, and the tangible results achieved through their investment in technology.
The CABINET VISION Wizard Award is also an opportunity for industry-wide recognition. The winner will receive their award, along with a feature on the Planit Australia website and dedicated promotion across social media channels. In addition, both the winner and finalists will be showcased in Connect magazine, offering valuable exposure to peers, partners, and potential clients across the sector.
As the cabinetry industry continues to evolve, initiatives such as this play an important role in highlighting best practice and inspiring others to innovate. Whether you are a small workshop embracing automation for the first time or a large-scale manufacturer refining advanced workflows, the CABINET VISION Wizard Award is your chance to share your story and be recognised as a leader in smart manufacturing.
