Steady growth in Dutch sustainably sourced timber market share

Growth in Dutch market share of sustainably sourced sawn wood and wood-based panels flattened in 2017, according to the latest study by forest and timber sustainability advisors and analysts Probos, and this trend is seen continuing in later data. But the report, its sixth of the sector, undertaken in 2018 for the Dutch Ministry of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality (LNV), still showed the share of both sustainably sourced sawn wood and wood-based panels and paper and cardboard placed on the Dutch market reaching 85%.
