Low Carbon Timber/en: Unterschied zwischen den Versionen

Version vom 28. April 2020, 21:50 Uhr

Low Carbon Timber

Wood consists to a large extent of carbon and has bound CO2 during growth. Low Carbon Timber does not therefore mean that the wood contains little CO2, but rather that little CO2 has been emitted during the production of the wood product. The less CO2 is emitted until the product is finished, the better the balance and the more of the wood's positive storage effect is retained. With some origins, more CO2 has been emitted than is bound in the wood, thus nullifying the storage or sink effect.

Transport plays a major role here, especially for wood products ( Climate protection through wood of short distances). But it is not so easy to find out how far the wood has been transported from the forest, because you cannot tell how far the wood has travelled. However, there is now a system in place to record the transport distances from the forest to the end customer and to label products that have been produced with above-average short distances. The eco-label and the proof of origin of wood from Hier Hier document such particularly environmentally friendly wood products. The system of wood from here is the only border-independent and transnationally functioning certification system. In the "German-speaking" area, products or buildings labelled in this way are marked with HOLZ VON HIER, in the rest of Europe with LOW CARBON TIMBER. Therefore there are two versions of the protected umbrella brand, which are shown below.

-Hierbei spielt vor allem bei Holzprodukten der Transport eine wesentliche Rolle ([[Klimaschutz durch Holz der kurzen Wege]]). Aber es ist nicht so einfach, zu erfahren, wie weit das Holz vom Wald an transportiert worden ist, denn dem Holz sieht man ja nicht an, wie weit es gereist ist. Hierfür gibt es aber inzwischen ein System, welches die Transportwege vom Wald an bis zum Endkunden erfasst und Produkte auszeichnet, die mit überdurchschnittlich kurzen Wegen produziert worden sind. Das Umweltzeichen und der Herkunftsnachweis Holz von Hier dokumentieren solche besonders umweltfreundlichen Holzprpodukte. Das System von Holz von hier ist dabei das einzige grenzunabhängig und transnational funktionierende Nachweissystem. Im "deutschsprachigen" Raum werden solchermaßen ausgezeichnete Produkte oder auch Gebäude mit '''HOLZ VON HIER''' gekennzeichnet, im sonstigen europäischen Raum mit '''LOW CARBON TIMBER'''. Daher gibt es zwei Ausführungen der geschützten Dachmarke, die unten stehend abgebildet sind.
