Hardwood logs procurement
The woodlands have been part of our life for generations. This is the reason why we make every effort to optimize the potential of every tree harvested. Our commitment to excellence is reflected in our respect for the environment, and we are proud of our Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification. As this certification attests, we are strongly committed to the management of the forest in a responsible way, thus assuring a perpetual supply of natural resources for future generations.

The procurement team at Champeau has educated me, and our woods team on how to maximize the bucking process of sawlogs to gain the highest financial yield per tree. This has put us at a competitive advantage with working with landowners.
