Negative effects of illegal timber imports in the EU
The International Organisation for Environmental Protection (WWT) has issued a detailed repport regarding illegal wood imports and exports inside the EU. In this context, France is more than a negative example, occupying the 6th place among european countries regarding illegal imports. Inside the EU, imports from illegal exploitation come mainly from Asian countries such as: China, Indonesia, Russia. Thus, the wood and wood products quanties imported by the Union are enormous. For example, in 2006 alone, 40% of the products supllied by South Asia, 30 % from Latin America and alomost 36% from Africa came from illegal or supposed illegal sources. Under these circumstrances, an entire series of negative effects, as well as channed natural catastrophes take place in the whole ecosistem, shaped as floods, land slidings or unprecedented climatic changes. Last but not least, illegal cutting in large quantities leads to a decrease in prices, affecting both loyal competition and direct producers. The top importers are Finland with 4.5 million m³, followed by Great Britain with 3.5 million m³. There is no doubt, that, concerning an eficient management, the EU has great gaps. WWP is demanding the issue of a communitary law which would guarantee a legal supply of wood inside the EU.

Indoor finishings in wooden houses
The problem of interior finishings must be established simultaneously with the construction of the house. Modern finishing materials, such as PVC, wallpaper, paint, tiles etc can be applied on indoor walls, on the ceiling or on the floor. The utilisation of these material would destroy the unicity and naturaless of a log house. Usually, in these type of houses, the characteristics of natural wood are underlined indoors, inspiring warmth and comfort. Thus, the utilisation of modern finishing materials is unsual, these being apropriate for modern constructions. These materials can be used in individual rooms of functional areas like: kitchens or bathrooms. In order to suit log houses, finishing materials should be chosen from a range of natural colours (stone, wood or brick colour). Fireplaces, stairs and furniture are the main elements in log houses. Usually, the fireplace is the central axis around which all the other elements must be displayed. Thus, constructors, architects and designers „invest” all their imagination in displaying the furniture. Presently, fireplaces are available in a variety of materials, shapes and sizes. Thus, the rationality and practicality of applying the correct model becomes essential. Stairs have a great accent inside a house. Usually, they are made out of wood, with railing, and having different ....
