Timber from trees and shrubs. Properties and utilization of 60 Central European wood species
August 28, 2026
Timber from trees and shrubs combines historical facts with modern descriptions and is intended to arouse curiosity about wood species that are no longer used today. Knowledge about the properties and possible uses of the very valuable wood from our shrubs and small trees creates a desire for new products and ideas for use and can thus make a significant contribution to increasing the sustainability of our forests.
