IHB International Timber Exchange has added the Spanish language to its website at www.timber-exchange.com.

Information was already available on the website in German, English, French and Italian. IHB chief executive Dieter Gratz said: “Spanish is an important building block that enables IHB to cover all the trade languages. Our goal of increasing the international visits from currently 40% to more than 50% next year has now become more than realistic.”

He claims IHB is the only website of its type to offer a translation service to the timber trade.
