‘Choose and use’ information sheets for builders
 Available exclusively to members, TRADA and wood for good (wfg) have joined forces to produce a new series of ‘Choose & Use' timber information sheets aimed at the general builder.
Based on market research among merchant members, the sheets have been designed to help merchants guide their customers in making the right choice of timber materials.
Four topics are already available online for TRADA members to download: Treated timber, Wood based sheet materials, Timber species and Storing timber and wood-based products on building sites. A further nine sheets are being developed and will be released throughout the year.
Each sheet may be downloaded as it becomes available, from www.trada.co.uk/techinfo/chooseanduse. To customise the information sheet, insert your contact information into the editable box on the back page before printing or posting on your own website
