The increasing usage of wood materials in the industry necessitates correct, effective and sustainable use of existing raw material resources. In this context, the concept of Industry 4.0, which includes smart production systems, smart objects, and smart management models, stands out. Industry 4.0 is defined by the concept where human, machinery, robotic control equipment, products and all related objects can communicate with each other; thus lines are arranged, and eventually they work as a networked system. IoT (Internet of Things) is defined as the communication of all elements/objects within the industry 4.0 system. In the light of current developments, the use of technology in the routine life activities of people is expanding. The most striking example of this is the progress in the telecommunication sector like smartphones. The aim here is not only to ensure verbal communication between people, but also the communication between objects, and objects with people. This creates the system referred as IoT. IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things), also called industrial internet, is the use of IoT in industry/manufacturing. This means that the whole supply chain works in interrelation. In this paper, the definition of IIoT concept and its potential in the forest products industry are examined.
