Providing technical knowledge on the diversity of tropical timber species and their uses
By educating the market on the remarkable range and technical performance of sustainable tropical timber species, we can grow their use and increase their range of applications. That strengthens the business case for sustainable forest management.
SDG Correspondence
This Fair&Precious commitment meets the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal # 7
"Tropical forests contain a multitude of wood species and a great number of these are potentially of commercial value. Bringing this unfulfilled potential to the market will relieve pressure on some of the most commonly used species. If these new species can be sourced from well managed FSC-certified forests, the potential for sustainable long-term development is vast"
