The Ultimate Renewable’s™ latest consumer advertising campaign has launched, headed up by a new brand ambassador, Adam Dovile.
As part of the first consumer-related marketing activity for the brand since the pandemic, the national television advertisement introduces viewers to Adam, a highly skilled builder and carpenter with a genuine love of timber. He is a recognisable face thanks to regular appearances on Seven’s ever-popular Better Homes and Gardens.
Dovile said he hopes the campaign will further the brand’s mission of helping shift attitudes around wood among the public and construction industry.
“It’s great to see that many more architects, designers and specifiers recognise the benefits of wood and embrace its use,” said Dovile
“I am excited to add my voice to this great cause by partnering with The Ultimate Renewable™ to promote the benefits and sustainable nature of this wonderful, versatile material.”
The 15 and 30-second TV ads will appear across eight networks, including Ten, Nine, Seven, WIN, Prime, Southern Cross Austereo, SBS and Foxtel, with potential to reach up to five million people.
During the ads, viewers will hear Dovile speak about the advantages of forest and wood products, as an animated house takes shape. The television ad is being supported by promotion through social media, print ads, podcasts, and billboards in both metro and regional locations.
The aim of the campaign is to create genuine consumer and industry engagement with the brand and reinforce that wood is a sustainable product.
With increased interest in sustainability amongst Australians, it’s vital that companies across every sector are seen to demonstrate an authentic commitment to sustainability, for their own competitiveness and longevity.
The Ultimate Renewable™ equips companies operating in the forest and wood products space with the tools they need to achieve this.

The Ultimate Renewable™ brand was developed and launched in 2019 to reinforce the association between wood and the word ‘renewable’.
Alongside consumer advertising activities, a key element of the brand is the universal, positive communications message it has created for the forestry sector to share.
Stakeholders from across the industry continue to enthusiastically incorporate the brand into their own collateral, by downloading the logo, banner ads and videos for use on everything from letterheads to invoices, websites, truck signage, packaging, and even branded cakes!
“Since launching The Ultimate Renewable™ three years ago, the industry response has been incredibly encouraging. It is a wonderful example of what our sector can achieve by working together with a united voice,” said Eileen Newbury, Head of Marketing and Communications at FWPA.
“Incorporating The Ultimate Renewable™ assets into your company collateral not only helps further the reach of the brand’s important messages, but also reminds customers of the renewable and sustainable nature of your wood products.”
