It’s not easy being green…

Nordic Engineered Wood was built on the ideal of providing the best sustainable wood solutions to the building industry.

It means re-evaluating accepted practices…

While it has always been responsible for reforestation and the stewardship of over 2 million acres of vital forestland, Chantiers Chibougamau Ltd. (CCL) nonetheless underwent ISO 14001 Certification in 2000 and to stay at the forefront of environmentally responsible forestry practices became certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) in 2009.

It means establishing new ways of responding to existing issues…

CCL’s proprietary ENVIRO≡LAM™ process is the direct result of the commitment to the best and highest utilization of wood fiber.  While it’s not easy to process underutilized fiber, CCL transforms tree tips into the key component of its glued laminated product line.  ENVIRO≡LAM is featured in Nordic Lam Beams, Headers, Columns, Tall Wall Studs, and the latest innovation, the NI-90x I-joist Series.

It means investing in the future…

In addition to its ongoing commitment to sustainable forestry, CCL continues to invest in new facilities and new equipment to keep on the cutting edge of technology and product development.

It means understanding that sustainability is more than just a goal… it’s a journey.
