Naturally Sustainable Siding Options
The LP SmartSide manufacturing process begins with a renewable resource: wood. All wood used is grown and gathered under strict Sustainable Forestry Initiative® (SFI) standards. To remain SFI-certified, all of our forest management and fiber sourcing programs must be managed for multiple environmental, social and economic values that will benefit our world now and into the future. We’re not just building for the future, we’re helping to protect it by actively investing in reforestation and the preservation of wildlife habitats.We source fast-growing trees and use 99% of the log for either the product or for fuel to make it. Plus, all binding agents and resins used in LP engineered wood siding panel, lap, trim, etc., are low-emitting and safe for children and pets. You can be confident that LP products installed on a home or other structure are sourced and produced sustainably.
