Global megatrends, such as resource scarcity, urbanisation, changing population structure, conscious consumption and digitalisation create permanent changes in the world we live in. How can wood-based products answer these challenges?

The exhibition of Finnish Uusi puu – New Wood, an initiative of various bioeconomy actors, proudly presents wood-based solutions to global challenges. Come and see yourself, how wood-based packaging, pharmaceuticals or textiles can offer us sustainable consumption choices for a better future.

The exhibition will be accompanied by refreshments.
