Organisation for European Quality Wood
towards a sustainable environment

 

 

Stichting Robinia is a knowledge and information centre that works towards a better understanding and optimal utilisation of European quality wood species. It encourages the use of European quality wood in a positive manner to leave the environment intact.

 

Strategies

    • Improve the exchange and knowledge between and beyond the different sectors in the 'forest-to-wood' chain.
    • Encourage the establishment and management of tree species which are known to produce quality wood.
    • Optimise the link between demand and supply of wood as well as to optimise the utilisation of wood.
    • Encourage the use of European quality wood as durable products.
    • Supply information about the possibilities of applications of wood.

Activities of the Stichting Robinia

    • Gathering and exchanging information
    • Developing new and improved afforestation and management techniques such as monitoring and field trials
    • Encouraging 'forest-to-wood chain' intersector dialogue in the form of discussion groups, workshops, symposia and fairs
