These mills are committed to: Preserving old growth forests Developing Habitat Conservation Plans to protect the ecosystem to benefit wildlife Managing lands of special significance—biological, geological, cultural, or historical—in a manner that takes into account their unique qualities Replanting an average of about one million seedlings by hand annually, ensuring forest for generations to come Complying with federal, state, and local forestry environmental laws and regulations Non-Wood Green Building Material Partners In addition to our commitment to sustainable forests, J&W Lumber ensures our non-wood suppliers are fully committed to the environment. Our composite, steel, aluminum, vinyl, tools and paint suppliers are all leaders in their prospective industries for doing their part in preserving our environment. Here are just a few of our green partners. An Overall Emphasis on Sustainability We don’t stop our commitment to the environment with our suppliers. Every facet of our business is dedicated to good stewardship with the environment. We have a great recycling program that addresses our office waste and material downfall as well. J&W Lumber operates with minimal materials making their way to the landfill. All our lumber is either sold for its building purpose, chipped up for landscaping, or sold for firewood. Even the sawdust is recycled to use for soil amendments.
