The Galician Wood and Design Cluster (CMD) was established in 2001 at the initiative of companies linked to the wood sector together with the Wood Technology Center (CIS Madeira) and the University of Vigo.
Since its inception, the CMD has brought together companies and agents linked to the entire industrial wood value chain, including companies related to forestry use, sawmills, veneer and board companies, pulp and paper, carpentry and furniture companies, Contract channel, services companies, Technology Centers, engineering and consultancy, prescriptors and Universities.
The turnover of the companies associated with the CMD represents more than 90% of the entire Galician sector turnover.
Currently, it is made up of more than 50 companies from all over Galicia, with a pioneering wood industry in the development of products at a national and international level, as well as companies that are a benchmark in design and innovation.
On the one hand, the CMD acts as a horizontal link between its partners, promoting cooperation projects at the European, national and regional level, and, on the other hand, as a vertical link between the timber sector and public decision-makers.
The CMD is committed to moving towards a circular economy, moving to the green and digital transition with the aim to achieve a smart and sustainable wood industry.
