The illegal trade of tropical timber is one of the main drivers of environmental degradation, human rights abuses and corruption.
The EU Timber Regulation, the US Lacey Act, and the Australia Illegal Logging Prohibition Act support the trade of legal timber, requiring timber buyers to take due care in the selection of suppliers of timber products to be imported to their countries.
The Responsible Timber Trade Fair is an opportunity to connect buyers and sellers of legal and certified timber products, thus helping to promote mutual efforts to combat illegality in the sector.
