Around 13 percent of the United Kingdom is covered by forest, some of which the logging industry uses to provide high-class British wood for construction and other purposes. It’s important to understand how forests help water sustainability and how the timber industry uses water responsibly.
You must take water sustainability in the timber industry very seriously. Contact Castle Water, and we’ll not only get you the right amount of water for your business, but we’ll implement services to keep it legally clean and properly processed.
A general idea is that it takes 25 litres of water to grow enough timber for one wooden board.
There has been a lot of exploration to try and quantify the water consumption of various tree types or woodland types, including in the United Kingdom. Regrettably, there is no straightforward answer to the issue of just the amount of water forests use, and research is ongoing to improve our ability to forecast the impacts of forestry on water resources.
In developed countries, laws and regulations strictly prohibit the logging industry from depleting water resources to the detriment of people and the environment.
There are also similar requirements demanded under law whereby no logging activity may pollute the water system. These demands needn’t be a huge hassle for a timber enterprise so long as they use excellent water management services and professional wastewater treatment.
