Purpose
The intent of the Timber Resource Efficiency Partnership (TREP) is to improve the sustainability of the joinery and wider timber industry through the development and delivery of practical actions, better awareness and understanding amongst all parts of the supply chain, and thus contribute towards the goal of reducing the total amount of waste produced by the timber sector, as well as waste sent to landfill.
Membership
Membership of TREP is open to any individual, company or trade association involved in the supply, manufacture, distribution, installation, recycling, reprocessing and disposal of timber or timber products as well as relevant government departments, local authorities and public bodies.
Resource Efficiency Tools
TREP has developed two online tools to help the timber industry to learn more about resource efficiency and waste management.
Meetings
TREP will meet at least 3 times a year to monitor progress made in the implementation of the Joinery Resource Efficiency Plan and to discuss relevant sustainability issues relating to the joinery and timber industry.
