Creative resources to share Timber Framing story

1 October 2022

Last month we covered the story of the Timber Framing Collective in Australia and how they are introducing a suite of easy-to use creative resources to help share the remarkable green story of Timber Framing.

Timber framing is the ultimate building material. It’s natural, strong and the only framing resource that tackles climate change. Research shows that 78% of consumers want to know about the green credentials of their building material options. So, it’s time to share the remarkable story of timber framing.

The resources are now there – and there is a huge array (brochures, fact sheets, posters, videos. Logos ….) to choose from. Download these resources to complement your own marketing and communications and let’s cascade the message far and wide.

Check out what’s on offer to help your business and the wider industry by clicking here.
