4 Vision A world where products from sustainable forests contribute to every aspect of daily life. TALL BUILDINGS made of wood? Engineered Wood Bridge building Environmentally friendly products Automated Logging TRUCKS Drones for forest surveillance Optimal use of our RESOURCE Interior products for trains, planes and automobiles LIGHTWEIGHT Airplanes The food we eat Remotely controlled Transportation 4
5 Vision starts with a Competitive Industry 5
6 COMPETITIVENESS & SUSTAINABILITY Continuous improvement is core to our research program We do this through: Strong operational research programs Knowledge and technology transfer, and Implementation De-risking research and development 2016 FPInnovations.

13 FUTURE SECTOR Low cost, high recovery fibre supply Advanced building systems Hygiene products & packaging Bio-based chemical market Leveraging green credentials CURRENT SECTOR Increasing timber supply costs Healthy solid wood market Advanced lumber products Pulp market transitioning Incremental environmental gains
14 And IMAGINE 14
15 A Forest where Genomic selection identifies trees that are best fit-tomarket and resistant to the impacts of climate change 15
16 And A more intelligent inventory is completed using drones; Lands are better managed for current and future use Forest fires are detected early; Mapping evolution of pest damage; 16
17 A Forest where Remote control harvesting creates a safer, more productive workforce 17
18 And Automated logging trucks deliver directly to the mill site while reducing fuel costs and carbon emissions 18 18
19 A Forest where Software applications pinpoint the location of the right tree for the right mill for the right product 19
20 And where software optimizes the value of each log Bois d ingénierie 20
21 Where 30-storey wooden buildings are the norm And have a postive impact on climate change. Up to 1 tonne of CO 2 is sequestered in every cubic metre of wood used. 21
22 And wood-based biomaterials are found in planes, trains and automobiles Certain wood-based biomaterials are stronger than steel! 22
23 Where creating wood products helps reduce our carbon footprint Trees absorb and release CO 2 during their life cycle. When converted to wooden products, the CO 2 is not released but captured in the finished product. Brock Commons at UBC is like removing 511 cars off the road for one year 23
24 That can create 24
25 New opportunities for Wood Products Water Crossings and Bridges Mid-rise Wood Building Storey SOM Tall Wood Concept
26 Transform chips to trains, planes and automobiles Lightweight high strength interior finishings for trains Wood Chips Airplane composites Treatment Fuel and composites for cars 26
27 From chips to animal feed Animal feedstock Wood Chips Carbohydrate s Treatment Flocculants 27
28 De-Risking R&D Investment 28 Canada s first Lignin Separation plant 30 T/d Licensing to West Fraser (>$10M) R&D to Demo: $12.5M Applications: adhesives, surfactants, composites, packaging World s first Cellulose Nano Crystals plant - 1 ton/d CelluForce is a Joint Venture FPInnovations and Domtar ($45M) R&D to Demo: $10.5M Applications: hydrocarbons, tissue, towel, thermoplastics, nonwovens World s first Cellulose Filament plant 5 ton/day Strategic alliance with Kruger ($43M) R&D to Demo: $21.5M Applications traditional and non-traditional: rheology, strength reinforcement, optical Bio-Refinery Pilot Plant in TMP mills Strategic Alliance with Resolute Forest Products ($22M) Applications provide renewable, biodegradable and cost-effective alternatives to petroleum-based products for use in the construction, automotive, mining, oil and other sectors.
