Abstract

Recycled wood is a type of wood waste material originated usually from municipals collection or construction works. It is a type of material that has potential to be utilised. Many studies have been conducted for exploitation of the material by researchers abroad. Currently it is regarded as an important resource for the wood and biofuel industries. Systematic collection and segregation procedures have to be established in order to increase yield and quality of the material. However in Malaysia the potential of utilising recycled wood is yet to be realised. This paper highlighted the potential of recycled wood utilisation and suggested approaches should be taken for the use of recycled wood.
