Roseburg produces several plywood and lumber products that have been environmentally certified by one of the world's most accepted third-party certification organizations, FSC (Forest Stewardship Council). FSC is an independent, not-for-profit organization with a diverse membership representing environmental, business, and social interests globally. SmartWood, the primary certifying organization for FSC, has evaluated and certified that Roseburg's forestry operations meet international environmental standards through appropriate conservation of the forest's economic resources.

Additionally, Roseburg has Scientific Certification Systems (SCS), a neutral third-party environmental testing and certification organization, audit our particleboard manufacturing process. SkyBlend™, UltraBlend™ and Roseburg Pine particleboard are certified by SCS. Results such as this not only confirm our commitment to conserving natural resources, but they also affirm that Roseburg is a very efficient producer of wood products.

In order for a company to be certified, they must have a written forest management plan that specifically addresses conservation of primary and secondary forests. The Plan must also include reforestation, monitoring practices, and protection of the forest's biological diversity. Companies must manage their tree plantations to alleviate pressures on natural forests and recognize and respect the rights of indigenous peoples. Another important aspect is for a company to support the economic and social well-being of local communities in which they operate.
