The Canadian Wood Council is the national association representing manufacturers of Canadian wood products used in construction. Through its member Associations, the Council represents those manufacturers. The Canadian Wood Council enables the selling of Canadian wood products through programs and services focused on creating market access and demand.

CWC increases the use of Canadian wood by assuring their broad regulatory acceptance. The Council ensures that North American construction can make maximum use of Canadian wood products with guidelines, tools and education. With wood being increasingly sought after for its high performance and green building attributes, the Council’s mandate is more than ever critical as it works with regulators, design and building professionals to specify wood in today's modern building systems.
