7 Sustainability The wood fiber in Trupan MDF is produced from certified, sustainably managed plantation forests. No native forest wood or genetically modified trees are used to produce any Trupan products. In addition, Trupan MDF has verified legal origin, and is compliant with the regulations of the USDA s Lacey Act governing the importation of plant-based products. The forests that provide wood fiber for Trupan MDF are certified as being in compliance with CERTFOR, Chile s strict national standard for sustainable forest management. Developed by a non-profit, non-governmental organization, with expert technical assistance from the Chilean Forestry Institute, the CERTFOR standard is endorsed by the international Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification Schemes (PEFC). CERTFOR is your assurance that Trupan MDF originates in plantations that are managed in an environmentally appropriate and socially responsible manner. In addition, ARAUCO has recently completed its first-ever carbon footprint assessment of its operations in Chile, Brazil, and Argentina. ARAUCO s carbon footprint is at the low end of those reported by the forest products industry, and the company is on a path to further reduce its carbon footprint in the years ahead. Quality Versatile Trupan MDF is made from 100% fresh pine fiber, which offers a perfect blend of excellent physical mechanical characteristics and lighter weight, in a CARB certified, sustainable, high-quality panel. Trupan MDF sold into North America meets all CARB guidelines. Selection Trupan is available in standard, light and ultralight densities to suit a wide range of demanding applications. From millwork to door core to lamination substrates, Trupan MDF delivers outstanding performance time after time.
