Turning research into action –.
for forests, timber and the climate.
For a sustainable, circular bioeconomy
Our mission
At CLB Switzerland, we bridge the gap between science and practice in the forestry and timber industry. Our goal: sustainability that doesn't just sound good on paper, but works in reality.
With sound advice, clear communication, and reliable analyses, we support companies, public authorities, and organizations in developing and implementing climate-effective solutions. Together, we set knowledge in motion – for sustainable decisions and measurable impact on people, nature, and the climate.

Our analyses and market studies provide the basis for informed decisions – data-driven, reliable and action-guiding.
Our network and partners
Thanks to their work for the Swiss Wood Innovation Network, the SIA, the Bern University of Applied Sciences, the Austrian Research Promotion Agency (FFG) and many others, CLB Schweiz and its employees are constantly surrounded by ideas and innovations, which provides strategic foresight and direct access to knowledge.
CLB Schweiz is taking advantage of this and is initiating experimental projects with these and other stakeholders, which utilise the findings from wood research with regard to the production of new materials, products and processes.
Mandates
After the strategic direction has been decided annually by the responsible club bodies, we take over the operational planning and implement the guidelines in concrete and reliable measures – with commitment and a clear focus on the desired result.
"Sustainability must not remain theoretical. We are contributing to ensuring that net emissions actually fall to zero by the middle of the century. Scientifically sound, field-tested, transparent."
