As one of the largest private landowners in the U.S., we create value by maximizing the yields of our timberlands through research and silviculture.
Our strategy is to increase our
timberland holdings while upgrading the quality by evaluating every acre, divesting nonstrategic timberlands and re-investing in strategic timberlands.
Our 2.7 million acres of working forests, located in ten U.S. states and New Zealand, provide wood for use in a variety of markets, from pulp to lumber, paper, oriented strand board (OSB) and other wood-based products.
Rayonier is committed to the responsible management of every acre. In the U.S., we voluntarily subscribe to the
Sustainable Forestry Initiative program, which includes independent third-party audits of our practices. We also practice sustainable forestry methods in New Zealand.
