Products/services: Together with various stakeholders along the value chain, the Forestry and Wood Cluster Initiative is working to mobilise economic power and exploit existing growth potential to maintain and strengthen the competitiveness of the forestry and wood sector. We support active and sustainable forest management to ensure the long-term availability of wood as a renewable raw material and to promote the innovative use of wood. The focus is on material utilisation, the highest possible added value, long-term use and the implementation of a circular economy. Timber construction plays a key role in this, which is why we promote its development and acceptance. We are committed to replacing fossil fuels with the renewable resource of wood. Another focus of our work is therefore the promotion of a wood-based bioeconomy.

Profile/competences

Core competencies

We impart expertise through knowledge transfer between industry, science and politics. We do this by participating in various strategy processes, providing information through newsletters, talks, social media and brochures, and by offering advice, for example on timber construction (Fachberatung Holzbau Bayern). We bring people together with their skills and ideas, organise events and support networking and cooperation within the forest and wood sector. An important part of our strategy is cross-sectoral cooperation with other industries and partner organisations in other federal states and countries. With the involvement of our stakeholders, we carry out cooperative projects and studies, and link companies with science. Together we work on innovation and the sustainability and competitiveness of the sector under the principle "Growing together".
