The Wood Marketing Federation stand ‘Woodspace’ which was launched at the 2009 Plan Expo show in Dublin made its way to Timber Expo 2011 at the Ricoh Arena, Coventry. The exhibition which was commissioned by WMF in 2008 initially featured imported timber but in 2009, the award winning architect Ciaran O’Connor turned his attention to Irish wood using eased edged all over Sitka spruce sourced from Murray Timber. The result was widely aclaimied by visitors to Plan Expo in 2010. Paul Harvey, WMF Chairman was delighted to hear that Willie Fitzgerald, Enterprise Ireland, Patrick Murray, Murray Timber and Richard Lowe, Coillte wished to use Woodspace as the central exhibition area for Irish companies at the Coventry event. The show was a huge success and featured WMF members Enterprise Irelaand, Coillte, Grainger Sawmills, Murray Timber Group and Glennon Brothers.
