TRADA Technology experts lead timber tours at Ecobuild

 TRADA is offering a schedule of guided timber tours at Ecobuild. Choosing between A or B, attendees will visit around 10 member stands, spending approximately 3 minutes per stand, where they will learn about the latest innovations in timber and timber-related products. With the use of headsets, the tours will offer informed commentary on some of the technical and regulatory drivers behind developments, inspiring delegates to go back to find out more. The timber tours will be conducted by TRADA Technology's technical consultants, who work closely with companies across the whole timber-construction supply chain.

A key feature of the tours will be the winning entry by architectural student Christian Spendier in a competition to design a timber pavilion, hosted by TRADA and sponsored by Timbmet, for students of Oxford Brookes University School of Architecture.

The tours will start and finish on the TRADA Stand, S1350.
