Forest Products Research Program

 

The intent is to stimulate the generation of new knowledge and transfer technologies that are necessary to balance the sustainable use of U.S. forest resources to maintain a vigorous, globally competitive domestic forest products industry. The FPR is uniquely designed to address the varying needs and opportunities of the different regions of the country but within a national needs framework. It is specifically designed to respond to current and emerging wood utilization issues, create new and improved value-added products, and provide technical information for the production of cross laminated timber from our Nations wood supply, which are critical to the sustainability of the national economy.
