As a leading North American producer of TFL decorative composite wood panels and HPL, Uniboard is convinced that operating a profitable business and maintaining a responsible approach to people and resources are by no means contradictory aims, but that they are actually mutually beneficial. At Uniboard, we work with renewable and sustainable resources, conserve energy, and reduce material consumption and emissions to produce quality products in a clean and safe manufacturing environment.
“Long before environmental concerns became mainstream, Uniboard was in the forefront by recycling post-industrial wood waste otherwise destined to be burnt or sent to land fill. ”
Our environmental audit program helps us stay abreast of changing rules and regulations while identifying potential risks in our operations.
Today, we continue to ensure the proper use of wood fiber waste into value-added and environmentally friendly products. Uniboard recuperates and reuses post-industrial and urban wood waste to reduce wood fiber consumption and land filling.
In partnership with our customers, Uniboard developed lighter products with outstanding physical properties that reduce our carbon footprint and help reduce CO2 emissions in production and transport. Concerning urea formaldehyde, Uniboard constantly strives to reduce emissions from its products and meet and exceed voluntary industry standards. Our NU Green® products meet CARB Phase 2 and TSCA TITLE VI emissions standards, the most stringent environmental guidelines in North America.
In fact, our NU Green portfolio goes above and beyond CARB 2 and TSCA TITLE VI standards as our NU Green products are also offered in ULEF (ultra-low-emitting formaldehyde) options. NU Green products help builders achieve LEED® (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) certification, the most recognized program to promote ''Green'' buildings.
Our facilities are FSC certified for traceability and chain of custody by Preferred by Nature. Uniboard’s raw particleboard, medium density boards and TFL are available as FSC certified products.
Uniboard’s TFL panels carry beautiful engineered decorative surfaces that replicate the look and feel of rare and fragile woodgrains while minimizing the harvest of these valuable trees.
