Abstract:
Timber consumption is a complex discussion for the industry, in part because the issue has been marked by doubts about lineage and origin. This paper aimed to identify challenges related to species, origins and wood use in the Brazilian construction sector. Searches on corporate websites and face-to-face interviews were used to identify involvement by species and origin in the domestic production of timber for housing. Relevant results were obtained for both methods since their margins of error were low. Forty exotic and nine native species were revealed to contribute significantly to the cons

The interest of winemakers to find new woods that can give their wines a special personality and the need for cooperage wood have led to the use of other woods than traditional oak. The aroma of wines is undoubtedly one of the quality factors most valued by consumers. Volatile compounds from wood are transferred to wines during ageing. The type and quantity of aromas in wood depend on several factors, with the species, origin and cooperage treatments, particularly toasting, being very important.

Abstract:
Wood identification of barbecue charcoal from commercial packages of three retailers (B1, B2, B3) in Slovenia and Croatia was performed with help of Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy (CLSM). CLSM enabled us to image key identification features of charcoal wood that were compared with light micrographs of wood from the reference collection. Product B1 contained charcoal made exclusively of beech wood (Fagus sylvatica) and the declaration indicated the address of the producer, in Serbia which allowed traceability of the wood. The selection of wood species in product B2, consisted of red oak (Qu

Silver fir (Abies alba Mill.), a valuable coniferous species, demonstrates significant variability in wood density, directly influencing other properties such as mechanical properties and industrial applications. This study investigates the density variations of silver fir wood originating from six different genetic provenances (Goszcz, Nieskurzów, Stary Sącz, Świętokrzyski Park Narodowy, Schwarzwald, and Kobiele Wielkie), all grown under identical environmental conditions at the Rogów LZD experimental area in Poland. Through a controlled experimental setup, samples were sectioned radially (fr

The aim of the research was to determine whether the effectiveness of caffeine, as a fungicide of natural origin, is affected by a different type of treated wood.
