W.A.V.E.
W.A.V.E., un projet qui ne manque pas de bois !
Le projet W.A.V.E. vise à promouvoir une filière bois locale en mobilisant ses acteurs, des producteurs jusqu’aux utilisateurs. Son objectif est de mobiliser les acteurs locaux, en amenant une coopération dans le but de créer des prototypes avec de nouvelles essences, non valorisées, dans la construction.
La Société Royale Forestière de Belgique joue un rôle central dans ce projet. En effet, elle est en charge d’approvisionner les partenaires du projet en matières premières avec des essences d’avenir, visant à les tester dans la construction.
L’équipe W.A.V.E de la SRFB cherche des propriétaires ayant comme essences du bouleau, peuplier, charme, chêne rouge, merisier, aulne, châtaignier, robinier, cèdre et séquoia. Si vous possédez ces essences avec une circonférence d’au moins 90 cm et une grume d’une hauteur minimum de 4 m, n’hésitez pas à vous manifester auprès d’eux :

Relocating wood processing
More than a third of the Grande Région (GR) is covered by forest, which is a major source of timber and home to many of the key players involved in its processing. In the face of climate change, the face of the forest is changing and so is the resource available for processing. How will this resource change? What uses can be made of it? What measures should be put in place to link producers and processors? How can we maintain the development of economic activities in which the conservation of the GR resource is a priority?
Objectives
The W.A.V.E. partners, including RFSB, under the leadership of Filière Bois Wallonie, are committed to promoting a high-performance local wood industry by relocating the value chain and encouraging the use of wood, an environmentally-friendly material with high carbon storage potential.
W.A.V.E. aims to increase the use of local wood, particularly for construction, develop concerted cross-border strategies, facilitate exchanges between players, strengthen collaboration within and between the various sectors, and support businesses through innovation and digital technology.
W.A.V.E.'s ambition is to reconcile the preservation of resources with the transition to an economy based on the local development of the wood industry within the Greater Region, by promoting networking to encourage alliances, encourage companies to relocate and create a space conducive to collective action.
The Greater Region
The Grande Région is a cross-border cooperation area bringing together territories in 4 European countries: Germany (Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland), Belgium (Wallonia and the Wallonia-Brussels Federation), Luxembourg and France (Lorraine, Meurthe-et-Moselle, Meuse) More info at www.granderegion.net
