Very little waste is generated during the manufacturing of wood into timber
and wood-based products

Norbord is committed to decreasing the amount of virgin wood being burnt in the UK

Burning virgin wood, wood fibre and pre-used wood should be the last usage because burning releases locked up CO2 earlier than is necessary. 

Wood used wisely means the 0.9 tonnes of CO2 stored in a cubic metre of wood continues to be kept out of the atmosphere throughout the initial life of a timber product and then beyond, through re-use and recycling.

By using the DEFRA hierarchy of sensible use of materials, we will actually save the environment.
