With retroactive effect from 1 January 2020, the subsidy for timber construction in Hamburg has now been officially increased to 0.80 euros per kilogram of timber product as part of the various subsidised housing construction programmes. As a funding requirement, the wood used must come from sustainable sources, be permanently installed in the building and be part of the construction. Wood products in the construction within the meaning of the subsidy are all solid wood products (sawn timber, planed timber, etc.), wood-based materials (chipboard, fibreboard, etc.) and products of structural timber construction (cross laminated timber, glulam, etc.). The pure wood content in these products must correspond to at least 80 % of the product mass.<\/p>\n
