UK — West Fraser has published a new factsheet, announcing the achievement that its UK operations are now officially counted as carbon negative, showing the industry that this is the way forward as a responsible producer of timber panel products. …All of its UK products have been certified as being net carbon negative – meaning that they lock up more CO2e than is emitted in making them. …This assertion is backed up by the fact that West Fraser sequesters 1.1 million tonnes of CO2e in its European operations each year, while its OSB products have earned an A+ rating in the BRE Green Guide. Other aspects of its progress include how three-quarters of the group’s use of renewable energy globally is based on biomass. …In terms of actual forestry management, 72.4 million seedlings are planted in Canada, plus over 2 million in the US. …Other important facts can be found in their 2024 Sustainability Report.
