Northwest BC Residual Fibre Utilization

This project will be delivered through a collaborated effort between Coast Tsimshian Resources and Skeena Sawmills, with the additional support of Harmac Pacific. The goal is to increase fibre utilization and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by utilizing residual fibre in northwest British Columbia that's currently not economically feasible to remove from the harvest area and would normally be left for burning. The project facilitates access to stands where it would otherwise be uneconomic to remove pulp logs but where removing the fibre will stimulate healthy forest growth. Once removed, the residual fibre will be transferred for chipping, providing a chip supply to the coastal pulp industry. Any remaining biomass will be pelletized for use as green energy.
