DRWO4.0
Danube Region Wood Industry Transformation Model towards Industry 4.0
Danube Region Wood Industry Transformation Model towards Industry 4.0
By providing nearly 3.5 million jobs across over 400 thousand companies, helping to maintain employment and wealth generation in rural areas and contributing to the low-carbon bio-economy, the EU forest-based industry represents about 7% of EU manufacturing GDP. Forest-based industry of Europe is unequally developed, which is especially evident in less developed regions and non-EU countries. While EU forest-based industry rushes forward with great strides (especially Western Europe), non-EU countries and less developed regions in EU countries are struggling to keep the pace with fast transformation based on digitalisation and new technologies, burdened with loss of customers, lack of high value-added green wood products, high costs etc.
