  1. Close co-operation essential Wood – indispensable raw material Josef Zboril Member EESC, Czech Republic

  2. Close co-operation essential • Wood – one of the most important raw materials - renewable • Classical value chain of the forest based industries – vital interdependence of all players – ownership chain • Paper industry – specific link in the chain: capital intensive, high recovery rate, high ratio of renewable energy - sustainable, carbon storage

  3. Close co-operation essential • PPI supports the Forest Strategy & Action Plan • Support of sustainable certified forestry • Appreciation of vital need of further development leading towards intensifying all links by means of efficient R&D • Forest based industries technology platform – basis for mutual research co-operation along the entire chain

  4. Close co-operation essential • Essentially – the value chain of such importance and complexity requires reasonable stability • Thus, the PPI follows the recent development in renewable energy sources with great concern • Careless set-up of subsidies of biomass as the energy source raise the highest concern • Nowadays, often, quality and precious raw material ends in the boilers – common sense???

  5. Close co-operation essential • Ultimately, no benefit for the environment • Endangered jobs • No sustainability – loss of competitiveness • Let's make first products (smart ones) as extended carbon storage – then energy • Subsidies should enhance such conceptinstead of threat throughout the EU
