Abstract
Delivering in alignment with the aims of “Making Wood Work for Wales”, the Welsh Government’s Timber Industrial Strategy, this work will enable collaboration between different sectors and improve data to enable informed decisions about future policy about the following:
1. Actions to increase timber value and promote innovation: focussing on increasing value rather than volume alone, exploring how forest management, processing capability and innovation as well as manufacturing know-how – including engineered timber solutions – can increase the economic, functional and climate value of Welsh-grown timber.
2. Improved timber supply intelligence and supply chain resilience. To strengthen understanding of domestic timber availability, quality and timing considerations, while addressing the vulnerability of markets to volatile global timber prices and imported supply.
3. Actions to support small and medium sized sawmills in construction supply chains
