Fibre Supply

ANC's Forest tenure allocations in conunction with independent Alberta sawmills provide a reliable supply of quality fibre.

Our facility requires approximately 250,000 Bone Dry Tonnes of wood fibre annually.

The vast majority of our wood fibre is obtained indirectly from our forest tenure allocations through sawlog / woodchip trade agreements with Alberta sawmills. Sawlogs harvested from our forest tenuure allocations are provided to Alberta Sawmills and, in returm, woodchips, derived as a secondary product from the sawmill's lumber making process, are provided to ANC. This supply strategy ensures optimimum utilization of Alberta's timber resources.
