The International Tropical Timber Organization (ITTO) conducted a study of the blockchain-based international timber traceability system for building sustainable wood supply chain since 2020. During the implementation, the blockchain architecture applicable to the timber traceability system was initially established. In 2022, ITTO embarked on cooperation with the Macao Trade and Investment Promotion Institute (IPIM), for implementing the project "Supporting the Collaborative Trial Operations of the Blockchain-based Timber Traceability System (BTTS) for Building Legal and Sustainable Forest Products Supply Chain". The aim is to conduct the pilot operation of Blockchain-based timber traceability in producer and consumer, to verify the theoretical framework of BBTS and lay the foundation for the BTTS promotion and application. The project is executed by Secretariat of the Global Green Supply Chains Initiative (GGSC). This report is one of the research achievements of the project, focusing on summarizing the pilot operation of Blockchain-based timber traceability and the pilot findings.
