On 16 and 17 November, the wood industry will once more be meeting in Karlstad, in a tradition that dates back over 50 years. Like the past few years, 2022 has been an exciting time for the industry on many fronts, so we are particularly looking forward to seeing everyone in person again in Karlstad. This year the main focus is on topical forestry issues and the market for sawn wood products. Swedish Wood is organising a seminar on November 17, no registration required. On November 16, our exhibition is open.

Wooden high-rise buildings have become reality. So have design projects taking on a life-cycle perspective working with a no-waste principle, and public spaces or even towns that take on the challenges of sustainable development for all citizens.

This is the most important week for Scandinavian design. Swedish Wood are involved in both online and offline activities during the week and we have chosen a selection of the most interesting activities if you want to get inspired by wood.

The President of the European Commission is highlighting it, the Commission’s Renovation Wave Communication as well. Yes, wood and its decisive contribution in greening our buildings is finally making its well-deserved way into the core of EU policy discussions!

The Swedish Wood Award, an architectural prize administered by Swedish Wood, is one of the nation’s largest and most widely known architectural competitions. The Swedish Wood Award 2020 received a total of 130 entries. Of these, the jury has visited over 40 buildings and drawn up a shortlist of 12 nominees.
