About this episode
If you've never visited a sawmill before, you'll be surprised about how much happens behind the scenes in turning a log into a product. The timber supply chain has continually found new ways to improve the utilisation fo feedstock and forest value by creating new products. In this episode we're speaking with Dave Gover, the GM of R&D at AKD about:
- The story of what happens behind the scenes in turning a log into a product
- What are the three goals of the timber supply chain
- How are the quality of products maintained.
