Rotorua Opening Shows Future Of Value-Added Wood ProcessingHon Todd McClayMinister of ForestryValue-added wood processing is showing its potential in commercial construction, says Forestry Minister Todd McClay at the opening of Red Stag's new VoMo factory in Rotorua. The project is expected to deliver substantial economic benefits and support demand for products such as cross laminated timber and other engineered wood products. Mr McClay said the project aligns with the Government's focus on growing regional economies and increasing investment in value-added processing. “This technology could open up new domestic and export opportunities for our wood processing sector while supporting growth right across the supply chain. The facility reflects the importance of projects like this to New Zealand's economic growth and manufacturing future.”
