“Superwood” has just launched as a commercial product, manufactured by InventWood, a company co-founded by material scientist Liangbing Hu.

Sounds neat! The price may be a little daunting for most people:

"...there’s one big challenge that can prevent SuperWood from becoming a mainstream material — and that’s cost. Steel is priced between $1 to $2 per pound, while SuperWood currently stands at over $12.5 and can go up to $25 per pound."

Maybe it will enter the economies-of-scale period at some point to make it viable for regular building projects. Still, what looks like a good step in the right direction.
