The article focuses on the research and development of a new composite material applicable in building industry, renewable raw material resources and industrial waste materials. The aim of the research is not only the application of concrete secondary raw materials but also the gaining of required safety aspects of these composite materials, i.e. certain fire technical characteristics.

The imports and end-uses of tropical hardwoods are analysed. Since 1972 annual imports have been around 1 million msuperscript 3 EQ (roundwood equiv.) of which 75% were used in the building industry, mainly in windows and window frames. Another important use is for pile plankings on canal banks, for which ekki [Lophira alata] is preferred. Possible substitutes for some end-uses are discussed: softwood (especially if preserved) is the most likely; reprocessed waste materials may also be used. A policy is proposed for conservation of the tropical rain forests, partly through their sustained yield management. (Abstract retrieved from CAB Abstracts by CABI’s permission)
