Give wood "waste" a second chance
We divert wood destined for the landfill and keep it in circulation instead.
Diverting wood waste from the landfill and making things more sustainably.
All wood is rescued from right here in the Waterloo Region. We believe that most wood can be restored and given a second (or third or fourth) purpose. Let's make the most of our natural resources and re-think wood recycling.

Wood waste resulting from construction, renovation, and demolition exceeds 8.8 billion pounds annually in Canada. Storm damage and tree management creates an additional 3.8 billion pounds.
If wood waste stems from building supplies, why not make building supplies out of wood waste?
Wood waste is a significant contributor to our landfills. Instead it can contribute to our economy while preserving resources.
"There are strong social, economic and ecological imperatives to both reduce the rate of wood waste generation and increase the quantities diverted from disposal"
