Chain invokes zero-tolerance approach' to illegally logged timber after ruling that VicForests was not exempt from national environment laws

Bunnings will stop selling timber logged by VicForests after a court found the state government-owned forestry agency breached conservation laws.

Bunnings has a zero-tolerance approach to illegally logged timber that dates back two decades and our commitment is to only source timber products from legal and well managed forest operations," Bunnings' director of merchandise, Phil Bishop, said on Wednesday.
