    Denk niet dat we niets over het hoofd zien. Tis wachten op de jaarcijfers per 31/3/2010. Vorig jaar kwamen deze op 2 juli.

    Vind het wel raar dat er werkelijks niets te vinden is over de voortgang van de financiering en de bouw van de Accoya fabriek in Nanjing China. Op de site van Diamond Wood staat nog steeds dat verwacht wordt dat de fabriek in 2011 volledig klaar is voor productie.

    Wordt zo´n fabriek in een paar maanden gebouwd? Hou mijn aandelen gewoon vast en hoop op nieuws.

    geduld is een schone zaak. Uiteraard zit de omzetdaling en verliezen al in de koers verwerkt. Gaat vooral om de volumestijgingen, licenties, distributiepartners en de voortgang van de fabrieken die globaal de produktie moeten ondersteunen. Wel dienen de fabrieken in China en het Midden Oosten hun afspraken na te komen wat door de economische crisis flink vertraagd is.

    Titan wood proves green credentials
    TITAN Wood says its high-performance Accoyo wood has enormous opportunities in the Middle East, one of the fastest growing markets in the world.

    David Morris, vice-president of business development and licensing, says the latest environmental credentials earned by Accoyo have made it one of the most reliable and sustainable wood products in the world.

    “Accoya wood is a non-toxic, modified and high-technology wood made from sustainably sourced and fast growing species, which is highly durable and dimensionally stable,” Morris says.

    It has further proven its green credentials in two ways – as a low carbon alternative to construction materials and a ‘gold standard’ product under the Cradle-to-Cradle (C2C) certification scheme.

    Morris elaborates: “Accoya wood has a very low carbon footprint compared with other conventional construction materials such as aluminium, steel, plastics (PVC) and unsustainably sourced tropical timber, as revealed by the recent carbon footprint assessment conducted by Camco, a leading environment consultancy.”

    Camco assessed the carbon footprint of Accoya wood based on a cradle-to-gate scenario, that is, greenhouse gas emissions released between harvesting the sustainably sourced wood through to the wood leaving the factory gate.

    Luke Purse, the Camco consultant, who led the study, says: “Both the construction and procurement sectors are becoming increasingly aware of the sustainability agenda and, crucially, so are their clients, and many are choosing sustainable products or materials. Our study demonstrates that Accoya wood is certainly a ‘low carbon’ option compared to many construction materials.”

    Paul Clegg, chief executive officer of Titan Wood, says: “There is currently a heavy focus on forests and wood products as they can act as a potential carbon sink to mitigate climate change and substitute carbon intensive non-renewable materials.

    “Traditionally, carbon-intensive non-renewable materials are chosen in building projects, but Accoya wood has revolutionised the industry by providing the best of both worlds in presenting a high-performing, yet sustainable wood with a low carbon footprint.”

    Additionally, Accoya wood has gained new recognition as a ‘Gold standard’ product under the C2C scheme executed by environmental consultancy firm Michael Braungart and Michael McDonough (MBDC), to determine if products, services and buildings comply with the C2C principles towards sustainability.

    Since Accoya wood is non-toxic and based on rapidly renewable wood species, it fits very well in the biological cycle within the C2C paradigm, and was therefore acknowledged as 100 per cent biodegradable by MBDC, which can either be safely composted or reused in the end-of-life phase, says Clegg.

    Also, in terms of safe materials, responsible wood sourcing, water efficiency and social responsibility Accoya wood proficiently met the high requirements for C2C Gold certification, he adds.

    Clegg comments: “C2C certification has become one of the most important eco-labels worldwide. Acquisition of C2C Gold certification confirms the anticipated environmental compatibility of Accoya wood.

    “We are proud to be the first company in Western Europe to achieve the prestigious C2C certification for Accoya wood and we value the recognition for the hard work that has gone into making Accoya wood as environmentally competitive as possible.”

    “C2C Gold certification will further strengthen our position as the world leader in wood technology and as a key contributor to a more sustainable building industry.”

    Accoya wood is produced using a patented process that effectively converts sustainably grown softwoods and non-durable hardwoods into what is best described as a “high technology wood”. Distinguished by its durability, dimensional stability and its reliability (in terms of consistency of both supply and quality), Accoya wood is particularly suited to exterior applications where performance and appearance are valued, says the company.

    Unlike most tropical and European hardwoods, its colour does not degrade when exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light. Moreover, the Accoya wood production process does not compromise the wood's strength or machinability.

    “The combination of UV resistance, dimensional stability, durability and retained strength means that Accoya wood offers a wealth of new opportunities to architects, designers and specifiers. For marine uses where weight is also important, Accoya wood for the first time provides boat builders with a wood that is strong, lightweight, durable and which retains its natural beauty for far longer,” Clegg explains.

    Titan Wood, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Accsys Technologies Group of Companies, unveiled Accoya wood at the Dubai WoodShow, the largest wood and wood machinery exhibition in the Middle East, which was held last month at Dubai Airport Expo.

    Accsys Technologies is an environmental science and technology company whose primary focus is on the production of Accoya wood and technology licensing via its subsidiary, Titan Wood, which has manufacturing operations in Arnhem, the Netherlands, a European office in London and an Americas office in Dallas, Texas

    American hardwood sees rising demand
    American hardwood has seen a notable rise in demand in the entire Mena region as well as East Africa and Pakistan, with Saudi Arabia and Egypt being the single largest markets.

    THE Middle East and North Africa (Mena) remains a key destination for American hardwoods amidst increasing demand within the region’s furniture, interiors and flooring sectors. Despite the widespread effects of the global recession, the region continues to show significant demand for American hardwoods, with exports from the US reaching $74.4 million last year, according to the American Hardwood Export Council (AHEC).

    “In line with our aims to increase awareness in the region, we are undertaking significant attempts to underline the primary benefits of US hardwoods, which are well reputed for their wide range of species and suitability to address calls for sustainability and standardised grading for increased transparency and assurance, among regional customers,” says Roderick Wiles, director – Africa, Middle East, South Asia, Oceania.

    According to Wiles, American hardwoods have seen a significant increase in demand, not only in Dubai, which has developed into a wood processing hub, but also in Abu Dhabi, territories across the entire Gulf as well as Iran, East Africa and Pakistan.

    “Notably, hardwoods from the US have also seen widespread demand in Egypt, where sawn timber and veneer are used in all kinds of construction projects as well as for the manufacturing of flooring and furniture – a significant percentage of which is exported back to the US and to Europe,” he says.

    A quick review of the numbers indicate that US hardwood log, lumber, veneer and flooring exports to the Mena region reached $74.4 million last year, marking a decrease from the previous year’s total of $80.6 million, but still up on the 2007 total of $62.4 million. The dip seen in 2009 was widely anticipated, due to the global economic downturn. However, this decrease was also mainly due to a decline in exports of logs to the region, rather than lumber and veneer, which held up remarkably well.

    “In terms of American hardwood lumber, which forms the bulk of US hardwood exports to the Mena region, the top five destinations in 2009 include Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the UAE. While Egypt and Saudi Arabia are the single largest consuming markets, the UAE remains extremely important given its strategic location, infrastructure and other capabilities, which make it an excellent hub for re-export to neighbouring Gulf countries and beyond. Exports of US hardwood lumber to Egypt and Saudi Arabia last year accounted for 24 per cent ($8.5 million) and 15 per cent ($5.6 million), respectively, of total exports to the region. Egypt was also the single most important destination for American hardwood veneers last year, taking $4.9 million or 37 per cent of total exports to the region. The second most significant market for veneers was the UAE, which took $2.9 million or 22 per cent of exports to the region.

    Commenting on the important markets for American hardwoods, he says: “The UAE continues to remain an important market as it acts as a wood-processing and redistribution hub for a wider region. Although demand in Dubai has decreased in the past 18 months or so, demand in Abu Dhabi has increased significantly and this is helping to drive the UAE market as a whole.

    “Saudi Arabia is also a very important market for hardwoods and its young and fast-growing population means that the construction sector will develop rapidly for the foreseeable future. Egypt, which is the largest market in the region, in terms of population, has a massive furniture and interiors sector and demand here is expected to grow as the sector increasingly gears itself up towards manufacturing for export. Other emerging markets include Lebanon and Jordan, where economic stability and growth are driving demand for interior wood products.”

    US hardwoods have been specified for a significant number of high-profile projects in the region, including Burj Khalifa, Burj Al Arab, Jumeirah Beach Hotel, Emirates Towers, Grand Hyatt Dubai, Dubai Mall, Mall of the Emirates and Ibn Battuta in Dubai and Bar Al Jissa Muscat. Leading architects and designers, as well as high-end turnkey contractors and manufacturers of flooring and furniture in the Gulf have also developed a strong appreciation of the potential offered by American hardwood, which signify further growth prospects for the product in the region.

    Commenting on sustainability and market trends, he says: “With the mounting global concern about climate change and illegal logging, green issues are becoming more important nearly everywhere. Abu Dhabi recently announced its intention to enact the world’s toughest green building standards. This trend is set to continue, particularly now that governments in major consuming countries are introducing legislation targeting illegal wood in trade. In the US, we have seen a recent amendment to the Lacey Act, which gives American authorities the power to prosecute companies caught in possession of wood harvested or traded illegally in any other country. The EU seems to be moving in the same direction, with proposals on the table to impose ‘due diligence’ requirements on all companies that ‘first place’ timber on the EU market.

    “Green marketing opportunities and burdens still vary enormously worldwide. We are seeing strong emerging demand for labels like FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) and PEFC (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification) in the UK and the Netherlands, respectively, where government procurement policies were developed early and are now being enforced more effectively.

    “There is no question that increased focus on environmental issues provides a major opportunity for American hardwoods at a very fundamental level. A natural, renewable, legally harvested and sustainably sourced product like US hardwood has much to gain from increased market interest in these issues.

    “The science of lifecycle-analysis is clear on the fact that very few materials can compete with wood on environmental credentials, and very few wood suppliers can match American hardwood’s claims to sustainability. Despite relentless population growth, urban expansion, and rising demand for hardwoods, the area and volume of American hardwood forests has been expanding dramatically. Between 1953 and 2007, the volume of US hardwood growing stock more than doubled from around 5 billion cu m to over 11 billion cu m.

    “When the wood industry originally began to respond to calls for proof of legality and sustainability, it tended to be industry specific or country specific – there was no unified wood voice. This is beginning to change now and it is clear that some challenges are common to the whole industry and demand a cohesive approach.

    “All sectors of the wood industry face growing demand for assurances that wood is both legal and sustainable. However, it has to be ensured that these demands do not impose unnecessary costs on the wood supply chain and that wood is not singled out unfairly compared to other materials. It is noticeable that the steel and concrete sectors are increasingly laying claim to ‘sustainability’ credentials. The forest sector has for years agonised over the actual meaning of ‘sustainable forestry’ and has t

    Laten we het er op houden dat het mooie bijkoopmomenten zijn als je er vanuit gaat dat het allemaal goed komt. Heb me gemiddelde al aardig naar beneden gebracht. Al blijf ik niet aan de gang. Ik hoop dat ze echt wat goeds te melden hebben in juni zodat er een mooie stijging en wat meer handel komt en de koers niet door een paarduizend handel per dag procenten lager eindigt. Wie verkoopt er nu op 43 cent:-s. Heeft iemand nog een goede site met realtime koersen en een orderboek van de engelse notering?

    Er wordt zelfs op € 0,39 verkocht.....
    Tsja wanneer je op € 0,35 hebt aangekocht doe je het in principe niet eens zo verkeerd. Doordat de koers dan zo laag staat, denken anderen weer laag in te kunnen stappen waardoor de mogelijkheid zich weer voordoet eenvoudig van je stukjes af te komen.
    Ben toch wel benieuwd hoe vér we uiteindelijk kunnen gaan zakken....sigh !!
