“We are focused on building sustainable shareholder value, and we recognize that objective is inextricably linked to making a positive impact for all of our stakeholders and it recognizes that healthy forests are important to the health of our planet,” said Eric Cremers, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We are committed to transparency and to contributing to sustainable economic development through our approach to ESG and our response to climate risks and opportunities,” stated Mr. Cremers.

  • Achieved an outstanding safety performance with record-low injury severity rate
  • Expanded Board diversity, added employee benefits, and provided enhanced diversity data
  • Further embedded ESG by including ESG in managers’ individual 2022 performance goals and through the establishment of Climate and Carbon teams
  • Continued to work on climate-related policy initiatives surrounding forests and wood products
  • Grew our ESG team and elevated ESG through the creation of a Chief ESG Officer position
