Anti-dumping, EUDR, CE – EU Compliance Checkpoints That Could Cost Producers Millions of Euros

Seminar Organized By: PTIA

Time	Brief Introduction	Speaker
11:00 - 12:00	Treecraft is a leading plywood importer in the European market. Together with its sister companies (Prime Forests, Solid International, Valbofor), the group brings nearly 30 years of combined experience in navigating EU compliance for wood products, including plywood, wood-based panels, doors, and flooring. Their deep industry knowledge includes first-hand updates on regulatory changes and practical insights into common compliance challenges—especially with EUDR and CE marking, which can determine whether a company is allowed to operate in the EU market. As the founder of PTIA, a union of over 20 EU importers representing more than 50% of EU plywood imports from China, the speaker has been at the forefront of recent anti-dumping cases involving China and Brazil. This session will also share the costly lessons learned from trade disputes and offer practical guidance for producers aiming to stay compliant and competitive in the EU market.	David Holvoet -Owner of Treecraft, Founder of the PTIA

Trend in Mass Timber Construction

Seminar Organized By: SK Global Co. Ltd.

Time	Brief Introduction	Speaker
15:30 - 17:00	With the rapid development of smart technologies and the growing focus on environmental issues, Mass Timber Construction is becoming a global trend in modern architecture. Wood, as a building material, has many advantages. It stores carbon instead of releasing it, making it a truly eco-friendly and renewable resource. Its production also has far less environmental impact compared with steel or concrete. Today, with advanced woodworking machinery, manufacturing large components such as beams, columns, and wall panels is no longer a challenge. Technology has made timber construction more precise, efficient, and sustainable. Of course, some people still have concerns — about fire safety, earthquake resistance, or deforestation. These are important questions, and they drive us to focus on responsible design, engineering innovation, and sustainable forestry. With new standards, engineered wood products like CLT, and hybrid structures, many of these challenges are already being solved. As we move from concrete jungles toward greener cities, Mass Timber Construction offers a practical path to reduce carbon emissions while keeping strength and beauty. Join us on November 20, 2025, from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m. at VietnamWood 2025, to explore the future of sustainable timber buildings together.	Cliff Chang -Director of SK Global Co. Ltd.
