Our stall at Timer Expo was part of our ‘Supporting Legal Timber Trade’ project, where we aim to support companies in Europe with the knowledge, tools and training to meet the requirements of the EU Timber Regulation. We presented our newly launched online platform, the NEPCon Sourcing Hub. At the same time, we ran egality clinics where we offered one-on-one advice on your due diligence system for free.
