Wood products and the environment

In recent years, the timber-using industries have made the most of the growing interest in sustainable development to promote their products as the most environmentally friendly choice.

Here you'll find news on the latest industry developments and initiatives from chain-of-custody certification schemes to waste management and resource efficiency plans for the joinery industry.

The BWF encourages its members to use their best endeavours to reduce their environmental impact and to manage resources and any waste efficiently and sustainably. 
We are actively engaged in industry-wide plans, supported by Government or Government Agencies, which help our members understand the issues, and provide them with management tools to help.
