Forest Biomass Valorisation and Business Hub
Low-value wood and other forest resources remain underused in many regions, despite their potential for circular bio-based applications. Forest owners and managers often lack reliable market information, practical business support, local processing options and contacts with potential buyers. This makes it difficult to assess whether new business models are economically viable.
F1 will establish a business hub to help forest owners and managers explore commercially viable uses for these resources.
What we want to achieve
Help forest owners and managers benefit from circular bio-based innovations through improved forest operations and new business opportunities from underused forest resources, in line with the cascading use principle.
What we will deliver
An open-access knowledge validated with proven business cases, decision-support tools and guidance on markets, logistics, investment, partnerships and regulation.
What this can change
Forest owners and managers can assess commercial options with greater confidence, reduce investment uncertainty and generate additional income from underused forest resources while supporting active and sustainable forest management.
