Our Strategy: Building a Sustainable Future

As a leading manufacturer of renewable wood building products, we offer a diverse portfolio of carbon-storing materials – a potential resource in combating climate change for the built environment. We source our wood from responsibly managed forests; focus on long‑term forest health and biodiversity; and have set and received validation for science‑based greenhouse gas reduction targets. We prioritize continuous improvement in our manufacturing processes to minimize environmental impact and ensure efficient resource utilization.

We align to international frameworks for our sustainability performance disclosures including the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) and the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). Through our membership with the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), we uphold and incorporate the guiding principles for businesses that inform our strategies, policies and procedures and that reinforce a culture of integrity.

By integrating sustainability principles into our operations, our commitment to ongoing evaluation and continuous improvement ensures our business strategy remains relevant in the face of evolving market dynamics and sustainability best practices.

In 2023, we tracked progress toward our stated sustainability goals and systematically identified opportunities to achieve long-term ESG performance. Full details of our progress can be found in "Appendix 6.2" on page 84.
