Wood waste and bark

Bark and wood waste is an important issue that needs special attention from environmental management and society. This waste occurs in large volumes as a result of logging, woodworking industry, as well as construction and renovation of buildings. Despite their organic nature, bark and wood waste can cause significant damage to the environment and human health.

Bark and wood waste make up a significant share of waste from logging and the woodworking industry. They include wood shavings, chips, bark and other residues. The problem is the large amount of this waste, which often remains unused and accumulates at sawmills, in forests or in landfills.

Mismanagement of such waste can lead to serious environmental problems as it can rot, releasing methane, which is a powerful greenhouse gas. In addition, the accumulation of large volumes of wood waste can cause fires, leading to loss of biodiversity and air pollution.
