Carbon Smart Wood™

What is Carbon Smart Wood™?

This isn’t just a material; it’s a revolution in making Carbon Smart Wood™ the new normal. We’re making the supply chain smarter, more transparent, and yes, way more beautiful.

We target wood impacted by the four Ds: disease, decay, disaster, and development. Instead of wood entering landfills, we partner with local arborists and millers to rescue and upcycle it. This process creates a carbon negative material. With Carbon Smart Wood™, we're not just changing materials; we're transforming mindsets and building for the future.

From Waste to Wood

Waste

Carbon Smart Wood™ is salvaged from local waste streams, rather than harvested. Trees are constantly removed as a result of disease, decay, disaster or development and sent to overflowing landfills.

Wood

Carbon Smart Wood™, ideal for all traditional lumber uses, is a net carbon sink, emitting seven times less CO2 than wood-plastic composites. Its widespread use could cut global emissions by 4%.

Trees

Carbon Smart Wood™ sales funnel 15% of profits into urban forest stewardship, funding tree planting and benefiting communities.

The Carbon Smart Wood™ journey

01 — When a tree falls

Fallen Trees

Across the country, forgotten trees and construction debris are sent to landfill. We collaborate with local arborists and municipalities to salvage and track this usable lumber, kickstarting its journey to something bigger.

02 — Wood processing

Sawmilling

At our sawmills we transform this overlooked wood into high-quality materials for use. Here, expertise meets hard work, making sure every piece of lumber is milled and ready for the next build.

03 — Wood refinement

Manufacturing

We ensure every slab, board and scrap of wood is transformed into carbon-negative material ready for market. It's not only about making things; it's about making them right. This key step creates jobs, saves carbon and turns what was once waste into something useful.

04 — Carbon Smart Wood™

Built Environment

Carbon Smart Wood™ builds more than just a structure. Every piece has a story and a purpose. In homes, offices, and public spaces, it's not just about building; it's about contributing to a more efficient and greener world.

05 — giving back

New Trees

Our supply chain goes full circle with every project. We're not just saving trees; we're giving back by planting new ones. It's our promise to sustain and enrich our urban forests.
