Sustainability

5.9 million

hectares of Forest Stewardship Council certified forest.

43,172,097

tree seedlings planted since 1994.

0.1%

or less of our forest, is harvested each year.

96.5%

of the water used is returned to the Athabasca River.

Sustainability is in every step of our operations; from responsibly managing 6.4 million hectares of Alberta’s forests and using forest bioproducts to power our Millsite, to returning the water used in our operations to the Athabasca River.

Maintaining environmentally friendly operations involves increasing our understanding of the boreal forest, acknowledging wildlife and habitats, providing renewable resources to consumers, giving back to nature and working with the forest’s natural patterns.

Sustainability is about doing our part to increase our working forests’ lifespan and provide responsibly sourced products for years to come. As the demand for sustainable products is growing worldwide, we continue to find new and innovative ways to deliver, just like we’ve done since opening in 1993.
