1. CEI-Bois : the solution CEI-BOIS EUROPEAN WOOD WORKING INDUSTRY’S STRATEGY AND ACTIVITIES Philip BUISSERET, SG CEI-BOIS INTERPAL Bordeaux, October 18th 2013

2. CEI-Bois : the solution Why a CEI-Bois? Common organization to monitor and influence EU policies Voice of the EU Wood Working Industry – EU Institutions and stakeholders (media, NGO,...) – Value chain partner organizations at EU level – EU workers organizations Material organization (product neutral) Reference for all questions related to Eur WWI

3. CEI-Bois : the solution Who is CEI-Bois?

4. CEI-Bois : the solution What is CEI-Bois: platform and network

5. CEI-Bois : the solution CEI-Bois compared to FEFPEB CEI-BOIS Overall representation for a material (wood) Deals with horizontal, material-linked issues Common denominator of different interests FEFPEB Dedicated to represent one type of application/product Deals with vertical, product- linked issues (focus) More shared interests and issues

6. CEI-Bois : the solution What does CEI-Bois do?

7. CEI-Bois : the solution Scope of CEI-BOIS activities SOURCING; WOOD MOBILIZATION SOURCING; WOOD MOBILIZATION DEMAND SIDE INNOVATION TRADE ISSUES DEMAND SIDE INNOVATION TRADE ISSUES MATERIAL RELATED REGULATION Environmental and safety performance CEN TC 350, 351... Occupational safety MATERIAL RELATED REGULATION Environmental and safety performance CEN TC 350, 351... Occupational safety EOSEOS EOSEOS EPFEPF EPFEPF FEPFEP FEPFEP FEFPEBFEFPEB FEFPEBFEFPEB CONVERTERS RECYCLING CHAIN OF CUSTODY

8. CEI-Bois : the solution RISKS and OPPORTUNITIES RISKS SUBSTITUTION RISK SUPPLY RISK PERCEPTION RISK OPPORTUNITIES RESOURCE EFFICIENCY CARBON EFFICIENCY LIFE CYCLE THINKING

9. CEI-Bois : the solution 3 PILLAR STRATEGY OF CEI-BOIS SOURCING & SUPPLYTRANSFORMATION + REGULATORY DEMAND SIDE STIMULI RESPONSIBLE SOURCING STANDARDS & LABELSGREEN BUILDING, RENOVATION BIOMASS SUSTAINABILITY LCA AND CARBON EFFICIENCY INNOVATION (FTP) CHAIN OF CUSTODY (EUTR, FSC, PEFC,...) RESOURCE EFFICIENCYSUBSTITUTION of High Carbon Products EOL MANAGEMENT & RECYCLING INDUSTRY FRIENDLY POLICY EXPORT & TRADE LEVELPLAYINGFIELD

10. CEI-Bois : the solution A. SOURCING & SUPPLY AREAINSTRUMENTOUTPUT RESPONSIBLE SOURCING - EU FORESTRY STRATEGY BEST PRACTICES FOR WOOD MOBILIZATION BIOMASS SUSTAINABILITY - SUSTAINABILITY CRITERIA (ILUC, DG ENER, CEN TC 411) UNIFORM OR USE SPECIFIC CRITERIA? CARBON ACCOUNTING? CHAIN OF CUSTODY + EUTR - ISO Project Group 287UNIFORM CoC RULES EOL MANAGEMENT & RECYCLING - EIP RAW MATERIALS - WASTE FRAMEWORK DIRECTIVE WOOD RECYCLING -Projects -Incentives

11. CEI-Bois : the solution B. TRANSFORMATION & REGULATORY AREAINSTRUMENTOUTPUT STANDARDS & LABELSCEN TC 350, 175, 351,...WOOD PCR  EPD LCA & CARBON EFFICIENCY Life Cycle Assessment tools RECOGNITION OF BIOGENIC CARBON RESOURCE EFFICIENCYEIP Raw Materials, Waste Frame Directive CASCADE USE MODEL; RECYCLING INDUSTRY FRIENDLY POLICY Forest Based Industry Strategy (“Blueprint”) Fitness Check of EU legislation for sector

12. CEI-Bois : the solution C. DEMAND SIDE STIMULI AREAINSTRUMENTOUTPUT GREEN BUILDING; CONSTRUCTION AND RENOVATION - Sustainable buildings; - Competitiveness Construction Sector; - Energy Efficient Buildings Incentives for sustainable (green) energy efficient buildings INNOVATION- Forest Based Sector Technology Platform - Horizon 2020 budget More WWI projects to be financed with EU funds SUBSTITUTION- DG CLIMA Study on substitution high carbon products Stimulate use of Harvested Wood Products EXPORT & TRADE- Trade negotiations - Missions for Growth Reduce trade barriers New export markets

13. CEI-Bois : the solution P Cfr. Challenges / Threats in the WPM Industry BIO-MASS Competition from Renewable Energy REGULATIONS Timber Chain of Custody/ Certification COMPETITION From Plastics & Corrugated Material GREEN TAXES Wooden Products & Packaging Waste ISPM15 Extension to Intra-European flows !?

14. CEI-Bois : the solution 1. BIOMASS COMPETITION Source: Indufor study

15. CEI-Bois : the solution FUTURE BIOMASS COMPETITION WOODY BIOMASS Pellet producers Chips & pellets Biorefineries BioFuels & gas Bioproducts WWI & F-BI Material use

16. CEI-Bois : the solution BIO ECONOMY July 2013 : Commission approves Joint Undertaking with 3,8 billion € funding – 1 billion € EU funding (Horizon 2020) – 2,8 billion € Industry funding PPP BRIDGE: project preparation Biobased Industries Consortium

17. CEI-Bois : the solution CEI-Bois & biomass competition Wood mobilization (Task Force) Model for cascading use decisions no subsidies, support or incentives Sustainabity Criteria for sourcing and use Chain of Custody requirements

18. CEI-Bois : the solution 2. EUTR – effective since March 1st EUTR: issues with risk assessment mgt Demand for country specific guidance EU reluctant to categorize country risks ETTF proposes to draft “best practices”

19. CEI-Bois : the solution ISO Chain of Custody Requirements NWIP launched by DIN/ABNT in June Scope unclear: CoC or also Sustainable Forest Management Joint Statement FSC-PEFC rejecting NWIP August 28th: positive vote September 17-18: PG 287 – Refine scope – Liaison (PEFC, FSC,...)

20. CEI-Bois : the solution 3. RECYCLING AND WFD Consultation on update Wasteframe Directive – CEI-Bois answer with FEFPEB input EIP – Raw Materials: potential projects for recycling and cascade use

21. CEI-Bois : the solution CEI-BOIS & FEFPEB IN CONJUNCTION ISPM 15 GREEN TAXES PACKAGING WASTE REGULATORY EUTR & CoC SUPPLY RISK: BIOMASS COMPETITION SUBSTITUTION RISK (COMPETITION)

22. CEI-Bois : the solution FEFPEB = IMPORTANT MEMBER PACKAGING & PALLETS represent 20 - 25% downstream use of sawn timber (24 mio m³) 9952 companies (manufacturing, repair) 92.000 employees – 300.000 indirect FEFPEB’s presence in CEI-Bois Board (Marc MICHIELSENS)

23. CEI-Bois : the solution Thank you for your attention! Philip BUISSERET, Secretary General CEI-Bois Rue Montoyer 24 Box 20, 1000 BRUSSELS philip.buisseret@cei-bois.org www.cei-bois.org
