Wood's vocation as an aerial support makes it a structural material chosen for its durability, mechanical characteristics and insulating properties, but not only that: new approaches such as the HQE label are propelling it to the forefront of the construction sector.

The drive to save non-renewable energy and the current importance of life cycle assessments will logically reinforce the role that wood will play in the next few years.
