The concept of Industry 4.0 is currently being promoted in all branches of industry, and its elements affect both the implementation area and the production sphere of the construction industry. Buildings based on wood are no exception in this regard, and certain positive examples in this direction can be observed. Currently, it is possible to observe that elements of automation and robotization are used abroad at a different implementation level than in Slovakia, which is also proven by the responses to selected survey questions presented below. The benefits associated with the use of elements of automation and robotization, especially in the production sphere, are indisputable and therefore it is necessary to implement them ever more to increase the performance of the construction industry as such and achieve better competitiveness and sustainability. The aim of the article is to introduce the issue of automation and robotization through theoretical starting points and, on a practical level, to map the views of companies operating in the timber construction sector as regards what they envision under these terms in their corporate structures and processes.
