Due to emerging global environmental issues and efforts to operate in a more sustainable way, wooden material demand is increasing. Therefore, acquisition methods of sustainable materials are of great importance. Wooden materials are products of the forest and they are used in the construction industry as building materials. Sustainable forestry methods seek to reduce the negative impact on the environment. Current research is aimed at evaluating sustainable forestry aspects in the context of wooden material production. Research methods applied to this study are literature review and case study analysis. Research results show that awareness of sustainable forestry methods is increasing and becoming an industry-expected approach. Cultivated forests are both technically more efficient and impose less impact on the environment compared to harvesting natural forests. Traditionally wooden material is considered as trunk, but the development of engineered timber material enables use of lower quality timber material while ensuring required technical parameters of an engineered product. Parts of the tree that previously were considered waste or by-products can be turned into engineered timber products, thus increasing wooden material yield from forest. Conclusions reveal that sustainable forestry principles are the basis for future development in construction industry to supply the growing demand for wood as a material.
