The cluster has been founded as a result of an FP7 framework programme. Currently we have different types of companies members in our cluster: forest owners, wood-workers, furniture producers.
PRO WOOD is the first innovative cluster in the wood processing and furniture sector in Romania. Its generation methodology has become a national model and has already been disseminated as best practice in several INTERREG, SEE projects. Innovation and internationalization represent the main development vectors. The creation of a value chain and the integration into an international industrial chain based on cross-cutting cluster cooperation and represent main objectives of Pro Wood.
