WHAT WE DO
|
The WA timber industry provides 6000 WA jobs and generates 1.4 billion dollars of economic activity every year.
FIFWA supports the responsible and sustainable management of WA forests and plantations. We have represented the interests of this proud industry for more than 120 years. We support and protect the industries that derive economic value and generate employment from sustainable forest management in WA by providing strong advocacy on behalf of the industry, liaising with state and local governments on behalf of the industry, and representing the industry to the media and the public. |

Timber is a resource which has stood the test of time.
It is renewable, recyclable, and biodegradable. 50 per cent of the dry weight of timber is stored carbon, removed from the atmosphere by growing trees. Timber has a lower embodied energy than other building materials such as steel and concrete, and residues provide a renewable energy substitute for fossil fuels.
