“We are very pleased to welcome the Institute of Carpenters as another partner in our European umbrella organisation,” said Peter Aicher, Timber Construction Europe president.
IOC President Geoff Rhodes said: “In an earlier part of the IOC’s history, very strong links were previously in place with other like-minded European organisations, particularly in France and Germany, who were representing the Carpentry, Joinery and Woodworking sectors. This brought with it valuable opportunities for sharing knowledge and experiences, from an international perspective. Timber construction is becoming increasingly important globally and this brings new challenges and opportunities for our industry. As a member of Timber Construction Europe, we are pleased to strengthen timber construction connections on a European level.”
