Sustainability: In our 175-year history, we’ve only experienced two eastern white pine harvest cycles. It takes 80 to 100 years before pine trees mature, making our business a long-term commitment. Our sawmills run with zero-waste of raw materials, with 100% of log fiber utilized. Sawdust by-products are used in place of fossil fuels, and we generate power through turbines, converting otherwise wasted steam from drying lumber into power. We also have invested in other forest products to further encourage sustainable practices and industry longevity. Our team can source and supply FSC Certified products, along with building materials that meet the rigorous Living Building Challenge requirements.
