Southern Biomass Trading Floor opens for business

Friday 30 Sep 2005

Southern Biomass Trading Floor opens for domestic and international trading on 1st October 2005. An Australasian initiative to open new trading channels for the burgeoning biomass market is to be launched in Brisbane this week, focusing principally on developing trade markets for green in-forest and mill waste into the demand bioenergy markets of Australia, New Zealand, the South Pacific and Asia.

Gaven Ferguson, General Manager Sales & Marketing comments that the enquiry level so far for registration with the Trading has been staggering with over 1,000 domestic and international enquiries being recorded in the past month alone. "The Timber industry on both sides of the Tasman has been aware for a long time that better uses for traditional waste is a key for the future sustainability of our industry. A lot of time, effort and energy has been put into developing technology solutions, often in partnership with Government Agencies and Power Co's, and really we are only still scratching the surface of what is possible.

By opening trade doors we believe that momentum will gather within the industry and encourage the industry to become even more pro-active than they have been so far. We're aiming to put the revenue answer in place." In simple terms Southern Biomass Trading sets out to link the product suppliers to the product buyers, both locally and internationally, and in that process will help to identify new markets as well as break into existing markets.
