Timber Now

Now more than ever, the world of mid-rise construction is talking about timber, for different reasons.

• Is it overpriced and unavailable, or the winner for safety and speed on the building site?
• Dangerous in fire, or safer than materials that don’t burn but crack or melt?
• Less sustainable than we thought, or the benchmark of biophilia and wellness?

Everybody has a view, but some have more insights than others. Our speakers have made bold choices early, anticipating the market trends:
