France
In partnership with BBCA, we drive the shift to a built environment in harmony with nature. France is a European frontrunner in biobased construction—a market defined by cutting-edge innovation, strong policy frameworks, and pioneering projects. This leadership creates the perfect conditions to scale timber and other nature-based materials across the sector.

Frontrunners
Our goal
Built by Nature France aims to accelerate the uptake of timber and other biobased materials in construction by building a strong national network of frontrunners. Coordinated by BBCA, the network will focus on multi-storey timber construction, closing knowledge gaps, and showcasing exemplary projects, while driving collaboration across sectors to shape policy, develop technical solutions, and foster innovation for a climate-neutral built environment.
Network Activities
The French Network creates spaces for collaboration and learning through regular roundtables, knowledge-sharing webinars, and thematic sessions on overcoming industry barriers. Members can engage in policy discussions, contribute to strategic objectives, and access guidance for applying to the Built by Nature Fund. The network also showcases pioneering projects and connects frontrunners from across sectors—developers, architects, cities, and innovators, working together to scale timber and biobased construction in France.
