22. The Wood Industry is Changing • No longer a large supply of quality tropical timbers/hardwoods • Reliability of supply, sustainability, legislation and cost issues • Environmental issues for hardwoods and chemically treated softwoods • Restrictions on chemical treatments • Sustainable forest management and certification increasingly important (FSC, PEFC, etc.) • Alternative materials gaining market share • Quality sacrificed for environment, cost or easy option

23. Recent Regulatory Trends Updated Lacey Act Becomes World’s First Ban on Illegal Logging New amendments added to the Lacey Act aim to cut down on illegal logging. Penalties range from $250 to in excess of $500,000 with a possibility of jail sentence for knowingly sourcing, or failing to exercise due care when sourcing, products that contain illegal timber or plants. Furniture Today 24 June 2008 Penalties to be Raised Under US-Peru FTA Early this year, an American delegation composed of environment and intellectual property specialists visited Peru twice to monitor progress on its forest policy development. American officials were interested in implementation arrangements under the US-Peru Free Trade Agreement (FTA), which was signed in 2007. During the visit, the Peruvian Foreign Commerce Ministry and Coordinator, Silvia Hooker, noted that policy reform measures were being undertaken to increase penalties for those who participate in illegal logging. Tropical Timber Market Report 31 March 2008 EU Tightens Myanmar Timber Ban The EU’s new regulation (194/2008) tightens sanctions on imported Myanmar timber imported directly or via other countries. The regulation, which took effect on 10 March 2008, supercedes a previous regulation on Myanmar sanctions from 2006. While teak logs and lumber are the main products mentioned in the new regulation, ‘sawlogs and veneer logs, lumber, planed products, wood-based panels, veneer and wooden furniture’ are also restricted. Tropical Timber Market Report 15 April 2008 Commission Recommends Congo Cancel Majority of Logging Contracts A government sponsored World Bank review of timber contracts in the Democratic Republic of Congo reported on Wednesday that the nation should withdraw more than 75 per cent of its logging deals for not meeting standards. The review was an attempt to recover millions of dollars in lost tax revenue and set the corruption-prone business straight. RedOrbit 7 August 2008

24. Recent Retail Trends The Home Depot The Home Depot is the world's leading wood buyer and the first major home improvement retailer in the USA to adopt the FSC principles. The Home Depot is a member of the Certified Forest Products Council (CFPC) - a US based certification organization that works in partnership with FSC - and a member of the Global Forest and Trade Network (GFTN). Lowe’s Following in the footsteps of The Home Depot, Lowe's, the world’s second largest wood buyer, adopted the FSC principles. Lowe's is a member of the CFPC and a member of the GFTN. IKEA IKEA is the world’s third largest wood buyer. It has recently tightened up the procurement procedures that it demands of subcontractors. IKEA´s long term goal is to source all of its wood from sustainably managed forests verified by an independent third party. Currently, FSC is the only certification system recognised by IKEA. Wal-Mart Wal-Mart has joined the GFTN. Wal-Mart announced that through this initiative they will be phasing out illegal and unwanted wood sources from its supply chain and increasing its proportion of wood products originating from credibly certified sources. Within one year, Wal-Mart will complete an assessment of where its wood furniture is coming from and whether the wood is legal and well-managed. Once the assessment is completed, Wal-Mart has committed to eliminating wood from illegal and unknown sources within five years. The company will also eliminate wood from forests that are of critical importance due to their environmental, socio-economic, biodiversity or landscape values and that are not well-managed.
