The Project CAREGA aims to optimize the local forest-wood supply chain, efficiently using all the parts that can be obtained from the trees.
For this reason, with the aim of enhancing wood products with zero value, such as residuals from forest operations, there is the intention to transform low value material into a high added value product, such as charcoal. Etifor is implementing innovative contracts between forest owners and primary and secondary processing companies.
