PomorInnovaLes cluster
APPM was the initiator and driving force of the first in Russia timber industry cluster PomorInnovaLes. Its goal is to create and develop a process chain where all participants – from wood harvesting companies to manufacturers of high added value products – are connected through partnership and work to improve the business activity in the region.
The largest projects implemented by the Cluster:
- bio-energetic industry development: manufacture of sawdust pallets (eco-friendly fuel) and construction of boiler houses consuming such pallets
- extension of the wood transport road network and improvement of its pavement
- creation of a seed-breeding centre to grow seedlings for forest restoration
