A milestone for the wood industry<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The recording was made public during Innovation Norway’s event in Oslo, where both chairman Jan Tore Meren and cluster leader Berit Sanness participated.
\n– Obviously, this provides extra motivation! The cluster’s mission is to strengthen the competitiveness of its member companies through collaboration throughout the value chain. With support from the cluster programme, we have an even better opportunity to develop new solutions together – not least within increased industrialization and innovation in wood use,” says Sanness. <\/p>\n

Together for lower emissions<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The Norwegian Wood Cluster has high ambitions. One of its main goals is to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions from buildings by 30% by 2035. “Our members play a key role in this transition. By focusing more on hybrid solutions, reuse, circular solutions and smarter use of resources, we will help to utilize raw materials responsibly and build a more sustainable future,” says Meren. <\/p>\n

Sanness adds: – “We see that the rehabilitation and reuse of existing buildings is becoming increasingly important to reduce both emissions and land use. Wood is part of the solution here, and we want to enable our members to take a leading role in this development.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=”0″ overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”3″ column_width_use_pixel=”yes” shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″ content_parallax=”0″ uncode_shortcode_id=”166316″ column_width_pixel=”900″][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image media=”2136″ caption=”yes” media_width_percent=”100″ media_ratio=”four-three” uncode_shortcode_id=”652938″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image media=”2142″ caption=”yes” media_width_percent=”100″ media_ratio=”four-three” uncode_shortcode_id=”220217″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=”0″ back_color=”color-190797″ overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”3″ column_width_use_pixel=”yes” shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″ content_parallax=”0″ uncode_shortcode_id=”128800″ column_width_pixel=”900″ back_color_type=”uncode-palette”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text text_color=”color-prif” uncode_shortcode_id=”149653″ text_color_type=”uncode-palette”]<\/p>\n

About the cluster program<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Norwegian Innovation Clusters (NIC<\/strong> ) is a national initiative from Innovation Norway, implemented in collaboration with SIVA and the Research Council of Norway. The program aims to strengthen collaboration and innovation between Norwegian companies – so that they can create value together that they could not achieve alone. <\/p>\n

About Norwegian Wood Cluster<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The Norwegian Wood Cluster<\/strong> was established in 2017 by the major woodworking companies around Lake Mj\u00f8sa, and has grown into a strong national cluster with increasing international focus.
\nThe vision is clear: We provide the world with innovative and sustainable building solutions in wood.<\/em><\/p>\n

The cluster brings together players from the entire value chain – from forestry and industry to construction and recycling, finance and academia – with a total annual turnover of around NOK 28 billion. NWC is owned by its members and aims to create business value through collaboration and innovation.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
