The industrialization of construction has accelerated significantly in recent years thanks to automation, prefabrication, digitalization and sustainable solutions. In the field of timber construction, these innovations are reflected in more efficient and environmentally friendly production and construction processes. Timber construction plays a key role in sustainable construction, as wood is a natural, renewable and carbon-neutral material. In combination with modern technologies and innovations, they become even more environmentally friendly, energy-efficient and durable. The purpose of this manuscript is to point out, within a limited scope, the principles and aspects related to the above-mentioned topics, both in terms of raising awareness of the given topics and also to initiate new research tasks for increasing the performance of the construction industry as such. Because, for example, innovations in the industrialization of timber construction enable faster, more precise and more sustainable construction. The combination of prefabrication, digitalization, automation and smart solutions is creating a new era of wooden buildings that are not only environmentally friendly but also competitive with traditional building materials.
