FINLAND'S WOOD
In Finland, the produce of wood products has long traditions.
Wood solutions have had a strong position in the construction sector and wood accounts for about 40 per cent of all building materials. Nearly 80 per cent of detached houses have a wooden frame. Wood is also used in structures, windows, doors and finished surfaces.
Development efforts have particularly focused on large-scale timber construction and on enhancing the energy efficiency of buildings.
