WOOD has always been an essential part in human
existence. From small carpentry, tools, furniture, cabinetry, and
accessories, growing to providing us with fuel and shelter, then to
houses, wagons, ships, railways, the human appetite for wood being
the oldest material has never diminished. This is due to the nature
of wood being the most versatile, friendly durable, and natural
beauty look present.
HOWEVER, in the past century, the volume of timber harvested
exceeded the volume of timber growth. Over the next few decades, as
population increases, our consumption of wood is expected to double.
In the past years, the world had asked the question: If we consume
the wood the way we have, will there be enough wood?
WE REMAIN OPTIMISTIC. Not that we suggest to consume the way we
have, but rather that first fact pleasant to be reminded is that
trees grow and wood is a renewable resource.
The civilization, primarily the timber stakeholders, has tried to
overcome this question with technology. We developed the technology
of composite products made possible by adhesive technology. Then
next, the engineered products are introduced over and over.
Still owing gratitude to the scientist that made them possible, but
in the future, we believe that better intelligent forest management
is imperative. Along with the environmental policy, forest
management, legal compliances, and technology, SERIOUS COMMITMENT
must address our future actions. We must be able to adopt new ways
of managing our forest and using the timber we grow. We always
suggest that we should not ask “SHALL WE USE OUR FOREST?” but rather
“HOW SHALL WE USE OUR FOREST?”
Under traditional milling practice, only one third of the tree found
its way into the final product. Now, not only that we want to reduce
waste, but we feel compelled to use the entire tree, involving more
efficient technology to process the conversion.
THIS IS WHAT WE DO AT PT. TANJUNG TIMBERINDO INDUSTRY TO
INCREASE THE VALUE OF THE FOREST:
|
1. |
We see the needs
and wisdom of experiences to implement intelligent forest
management. |
|
2. |
We efficiently
control our log cutting and timber milling production to get
maximum yield. |
|
3. |
We introduce new
and secondary species. |
|
4. |
We explore a new,
different, changing technology to create more downstream
product. |
For those who understand, it has
never been stone or bronze or iron or even space age. It has always
been wood age from beginning.
