Forestry & Timber Industry Collective
The Primex Forestry & Timber Hub is anticipated to offer the largest specialised industry event in Australia, delivered in collaboration with State and National based forestry industry organisations and representatives covering the entire supply-chain.
In our immediate zone, the North East NSW Region has the largest hardwood industry production in the State contributing $700 million annually to GDP and employing 5,700 people.
It produces a diverse range of hardwood products including flooring, decking, cladding, joinery, structural hardwood, engineered products, poles, marine piles, pallets, fencing timber, mining timber, firewood and bioenergy.
With specialised machinery, equipment, services and technology making up the core of the Forestry & Timber coverage, the NE NSW Forestry Hub region has forest production of around 1 million cubic metres of hardwood and 400,000 cubic metres of softwood per year. The Forestry Corporation of NSW produces around three quarters of the region’s timber with the balance coming from private property. There are over 3,700 properties within the region that contribute to the supply of timber from private land.
Most of the wood grown in the region is processed in the region with over fifty mills spread along the coast and many more portable mills.

Health & Wellbeing
Primex is working with Government, Support Groups and Organisations to bring together a range of health experts and organisations in a dedicated area of the Event. The objective is to provide visitors with the opportunity to receive health advice and a range of check-ups, including blood pressure checks, blood sugar level testing, hepatitis C testing, and skin cancer spot checks, among many others.
Those participating in the Health & Wellbeing Hub can also connect visitors with support networks across the Region for various health conditions.
This initiative is an affirmative action and proactive response to ensure that the North Coast and specifically Northern Rivers, as a vast area of villages and smaller rural communities, have the same health and wellbeing opportunities as those who live in larger urban areas.
We know it can be difficult to get people from our farming and rural communities in to see medical professionals and this is the primary objective of the Hub. Having a dedicated space for all participating organisations will be a significant step towards generating the support, information and resources that our communities need and provide check-ups they can get.
