FIBER UTILIZATION
NO WASTE CARBON IMPACT
San Group is addressing the waste fibre issue in a proactive way by constructing a new mill on the Coast of British Columbia, designed to fully utilize logs 3′ and above. We are working to mitigate the issue of 2.6 million cubic meters left behind as under-utilized fibre. In turn, this reduces greenhouse gases and maximizes reforestation efforts, providing a solution to help reduce the forest industries overall carbon footprint.
FROM HARVEST TO HOME
At San Group, we believe it is important to manage every aspect of our production. This is what makes San Group unique, we carefully oversee every step of our supply chain, from start to finish – or as we say at San Group, From Harvest to Home.
It starts by ensuring we are strong stewards of the land, being environmentally sensitive to the area in which we access our wood supply – adhering to the highest ethical harvesting standards. After harvesting, the next step is transporting the timber to our sawmill where it undergoes primary manufacturing. We then send the processed lumber to our remanufacturing and wood products plants to create a range of products that are part of the San Group portfolio. We then sell direct through our retail outlets in Canada or export our products from dimensional wholesale lumber to finished building products to over 25 countries worldwide.
