Nature-positive action along the life cycle of forest products
WORKING FORESTS
Forest companies contribute toward nature-positive by promoting sustainable forest management practices in the forests they manage and source from. The perpetual cycle of harvesting
and planting ensures a renewable supply of wood for the circular bioeconomy while providing multiple benefits such as carbon sequestration, clean water, habitat and economic livelihood.
