Byggbeskrivningar

Swedish Wood is an organisation that represents the Swedish sawmill industry and is part of the Swedish Forest Industries Federation. It also represents Sweden’s glulam, cross-laminated timber (CLT) and packaging industries, and works closely with builders’ merchants and timber wholesalers. Its aim is to grow the market for Swedish wood and wood products in construction, interior design and packaging, while supporting a sustainable society and a thriving sawmill industry.

The organisation shares knowledge about wood, its properties and uses, sustainability, forestry and wood construction. It offers educational resources through the Swedish Wood Learning Portal and provides practical guidance, handbooks and technical publications on subjects including timber design, CLT, glulam, moisture management and wood handling. Swedish Wood also promotes timber architecture and design through case studies, inspiration and the Swedish Wood Award, a major architectural competition held every four years. Its Trä magazine serves architects, structural engineers and others interested in architecture and construction.
