AIASF’s Climate, Craft, and Circularity in Architectural Practice: How to Specify Wood Sustainably

Cambium will host a presentation at AIASF that tells the story of lumber circularity. It will address climate impacts associated with traditional lumber sourcing, including tropical hardwoods and internationally processed wood products, as well as the significant opportunity in utilizing domestic wood waste. This session also introduces a high-performance salvaged wood product sourced from fallen and removed trees across the U.S.

Participants will learn about what a circular wood supply chain can look like, including collection, processing, and specification of salvaged wood. They will explore design applications (in millwork, furniture, and mass timber applications) and learn how to replace imported and extractive materials with local, low-carbon alternatives. This session features a live Q&A, case study examples, and tactile wood samples, providing an interactive, project-oriented experience.
