Sustainability

Craig Wood Products is committed to sustainability in forestry and construction

R-2000 Homes:
Craig Construction is the premier contractor on Prince Edward Island to create R-200 homes. R-2000 Homes are 50% more energy efficient than standard new homes built to code. Find out more about R-2000 homes by visiting our Construction page

Geo-Thermal Services:
We are able to install geo-thermal systems. Geo thermal energy is generated and stored in the ground, and has a minimal energy footprint

Renewable Harvesting:
Craig Wood Products’ practices renewable harvesting. We remove trees that are nearing the end of their life cycle allowing the new growth to thrive. This creates a complex multi-age forest that is better suited to withstand natural disasters, pests and disease.

Sustainability on Site:
Craig Wood Products heats their business by using scrap from their lumber production. The lumber is dried using scrap from its production.

Maintaining Island Woodlots:
Craig Wood Products has acreages of Prince Edward Island woodlots that they are passionate about sustaining for generations. They are a member of the Prince Edward Island Woodlot Association 

“PEIWOA is an inclusive group of woodlot owners that encourages Islanders to create a more sustainable forest ecosystem and forest resource on Prince Edward Island.”
