To promote the use of Hawaii plantation species and test market potential, sample bundles were provided to secondary wood processing businesses (millwork & furniture) to be used in higher value wood products.
6 local businesses were selected on Hawaii Island, Maui, and Oahu to receive a sample bundle of kiln-dried eucalyptus grandis and Queensland maple.
Recipients are currently making products. One local business, Nalu Builds has partnered with HWUT to do a community giveaway for the eucalyptus dining table set they made (pictured right).
