TimBer sAves CArBOn DiOxiDe

Carbon dioxide is split during the process of photosynthesis in the leaf. The carbon C remains in the wood while the oxygen O is released into the atmosphere. Through this process the amount of carbon in the atmosphere is reduced for the period of use and the carbon is deposited in the wood.

DimensiOns
The amount of carbon saved by timber is not wellknown. Do you know precisely how much carbon your recent project has saved? A wooden door saves approximately 36 pounds of carbon. A detached house made of timber can saved up to 40 tons of carbon.

The CArBOn-BAnk
The Carbon Bank documents the reduction of carbon by the use of timber on an international basis. As a company of the woodworking industry, you can register the projects you build with the Carbon Bank free of charge. This way you can learn precisely how much carbon you saved with your buildings.

Sustainable forestry is, of course, a precondition; for every tree felled, a new one is planted. Thats why the use of timber is active climate protection!

You record the specifications of your building to calculate the reduction of carbon. The type of wood as well as the quantity used are essential for this calculation.

You can then use these figures for your public relations. For example, this could be connected with a presentation like in the henkeL kindergarten kleine Lwen in Dsseldorf (104 t reduction of carbon).
