Hardwood distributor Timbmet has signed up as a gold sponsor of new timber exhibition and conference Timber Expo.
Timber Expo organisers have also announced Ontario Wood, an association representing the Canadian province’s forest products industry, has become a bronze sponsor.
Timbmet said the event would provide it with a forum to explore new business opportunities, while Ontario Wood’s Mark Angelini believes the show has the wood and timber focus that will bring out the types of visitors with whom the association wants to establish business relationships.
The Timber Trade Federation has also backed the show as a “fantastic” opportunity to increase the use of wood in construction.
The American Hardwood Export Council is the major sponsor for Timber Expo, with Swift Training School and now Timbmet being the gold sponsors.
