We hope you’ll join us on this journey. Our Principles of Progress These principles guide our behavior as we work to help people improve their lives. Dive deeper into each one to discover the specific ways in which that impact comes to life. Conserve Natural Resource Conservation As a forest products company, we rely on healthy and abundant forest and clean and plentiful water in our operations. That’s why it’s crucial we work with our suppliers and Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) through conservation to protect water, enhance wildlife, restore vulnerable habitats, and ensure there are working forests for the future. Challenge Non-Renewable Resource Use Although our primary raw material, wood, is a renewable resource, our processes rely on non-renewable resources as well. Fossil fuels and chemical are used in our manufacturing process, while plastics and gypsum rock are materials used to produce some of our products. Through transformative action, we challenge how we are using these resources, while innovating to seek viable alternatives. Control Emissions The manufacturing of our products is resource intensive, requiring significants fiber, water, energy, chemicals, and labor. This conversion generates waste, including solid, liquid, and air emissions which, along with resource consumption, creates cost for Georgia-Pacific and society. We’re constantly innovating to control these impacts and drive greater efficiency. Contribute Sustainable Products We create and contribute highly valued products to society while minimizing our impact. Life-cycle thinking and creative destruction drive our processes. Throughout, we focus on choosing the best materials, minimizing the impact of our products in use, and building in end-of-life options including recycling and composting.

GP connects with our employees, neighbors, and customers by offering safe, well-paying jobs, and by supporting causes consistent with the objectives of our Foundation through financial support and volunteerism.
