Sustainability

Sustainability, along with Health and Safety, forms the foundation of our business.

A sustainable approach is integral to everything we do and a core component of our company’s purpose, which is to provide sustainable, tailored forest products to fulfil society’s needs. We have over 50 years’ experience in adding value to our natural resource and we are proud to be part of New Zealand’s bioeconomy.

In 2022, we published our first Sustainability Report that featured our strategic goals aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals, and the projects underway that focus on the sustainability areas important to our stakeholders. 

In June 2025, we published our second Sustainability Report that, in addition to highlighting our progress towards the goals, features information about the impact of 2023 Cyclone Gabrielle on our operations that closed our pulpmill and sawmill for over a year, and how we have recovered. It includes a large feature on our forests and the ways we are building resilience for climate change events and increasing environmental protections.
