\"\"<\/a>Recently, the Austrian state of Vorarlberg published the subsidy guidelines for 2020 and 2021 for residential renovation and new construction in the private and public sectors. The climate-friendly procurement of wood and wood products from the region is anchored in these guidelines. The origin of the wood must be proven by means of the \"Holz von Hier\" label recently introduced in Austria or comparable certificates.<\/p>\n


\nFinancial advantage for building owners through regional wood<\/b><\/p>\n

If regional wood is used, the costs eligible for housing subsidies increase by 20 euros per square metre of roof and fa\u00e7ade area, for example. For an average-sized single-family house, this can add up to around 4,000 to 5,000 euros. In the case of new buildings, the recognised costs for a loan under the housing subsidy also increase by 20 euros per square metre of floor space for the use of regional wood for the windows, and by as much as 30 euros for the fa\u00e7ade.<\/p>\n

\"With this innovation, we have placed climate-friendly procurement in the foreground, without the risk of legal discrimination against companies in border regions,\" says Provincial Councillor Christian Gantner, emphasising the priorities. Unlike other quality labels, \"Holz von Hier\" is not oriented towards state or national borders, but only takes into account transport distances along the entire processing chain. Cross-border cooperation in the wood processing chain is thus strengthened. \"In the long term, thanks to \"Holz von Hier\", regional, rural businesses can be strengthened and imports from more distant countries such as Russia and Scandinavia can be replaced,\" adds DI Andreas Amann, Head of the Forestry Department of the Provincial Government.<\/p>\n

Trend reversal towards more regionality and climate protection in timber construction<\/b><\/p>\n

The inclusion of the \"Holz von Hier\" label can stimulate demand among end customers for domestic timber. In public tenders, the proof of origin is already required in accordance with the law, since it has found its way into the specifications for the municipal building certificate. In order to use the label, the entire processing chain must be traceable - all companies from the sawmill to the dealer to the window manufacturer must join the initiative if they want to offer domestic wood with chain-of-custody certification.<\/p>\n

\"We think that with the inclusion of 'Holz von Hier' in the housing guidelines, a trend reversal towards more regionality and climate protection in construction can be initiated,\" hopes Erich Reiner, contact person for Holz von Hier in Austria. This could succeed even better if the regionality of the entire building construction is taken into account in future revisions of the subsidy guidelines. The climate-friendly use of wood is in line with the forestry strategy of the state of Vorarlberg and supports the efforts to achieve the energy autonomy goals.<\/p>\n
