OUR PEOPLE

We are committed to helping our people reach their full potential.

We are immensely proud when our customers and others tell us that West Fraser people are some of the most experienced they have met. The reason is simple: we recruit the best, continually invest in their skills and create an environment where they want to develop their careers.

OUR COMMUNITIES

We aim to be a good neighbour by positively engaging with the community.

We recognise that we are integral to the communities in which we have manufacturing operations. We generate significant commercial benefit through providing employment and contributing to community projects. Yet we’re also mindful that our operations have the potential to cause disturbance to local residents and we therefore work hard to minimise any negative impact through local community initiatives.

ENVIRONMENT AND SUSTAINABILITY

We are committed to being at the environmental forefront within in our industry.

As one of the largest producers of panel products in Europe, we have a responsibility to be at the forefront of initiatives that tackle today’s environmental challenge. That’s why, as the environmental impact of deforestation became clear, we led the UK industry towards FSC® certification. What’s more, our European operations were amongst the first in the world to produce FSC® certified panel boards.

OUR CUSTOMERS

We are committed to helping our customers be successful.

We are proud and appreciative that we are able to claim to have unbroken supply records with some customers that stretch back over 30 years. We work in partnership with key customers that are leading the way within their own channels. By responding to their needs, we are part of their success, providing products, service and ongoing support that exceed expectations.

HEALTH & SAFETY

We are committed to safeguarding the health and wellbeing of our employees, contractors and visitors by creating and maintaining a safe working environment.

An underpinning tenet of belief toward Health and Safety is a vision of zero accidents and a number of initiatives develop, support, measure and maintain this goal. Visitors to our operations are often struck by the strong presence that safety has in our business and it is this high profile that drives our ambition towards health and safety excellence.
