The steadily increasing focus on climate protection, reinforced by the scientific results of many research projects that prove that wood is not only a climate-neutral but also a strongly CO2-binding material, ensures that wood replaces synthetic materials and also cement and steel in many areas. At the same time, the supply of wood is becoming scarcer worldwide, because in many countries the felling of forest areas is being increasingly restricted, and in some countries, such as India, it has been almost completely stopped.
