| 17 ‘Our customers demand it, and we respond to that demand through our environmentally sensitive forestry.’ Juken NZ Ltd - Masterton REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT “Our customers demand it, and we respond to that demand through our environmentally sensitive forestry and manufacturing processes. Our practices and products deliver on that. Not only is our very purpose environmentally friendly by replacing the use of non-sustainable hardwoods from around the world with sustainably grown radiata pine, we also strive to reduce our impact on the environment through reuse and recycling practices to minimise our impact on the environment — all while maintaining a sustainable resource for future generations. “In doing all of this we have set ourselves up to be measured and assessed against external benchmarks including local authority or central government regulatory consents environmental framework, along with internationally recognised environmental standards. “That is all designed to demonstrate our commitment to forestry and manufacturing environmental best practice, giving our customers peace of mind, knowing they can choose an option which values sustainability.” Juken also works alongside the communities in which it operates and always aims to minimise its impact on the environment. “Bark is used for garden mulch, chemical containers are recycled, forest areas of significance are protected and monitored, and all of our mill energy requirements are fuelled by renewable, sustainable wood residues,” says Karl. “We have a genuine commitment to ensuring that we make the right impression on the environment and that our customers can feel good about our products and processes involved in growing, making, and delivering it to them.” Employing 190 staff at the Wairarapa mill and around 100 forestry contract staff, JNL’s wage bill in the Wairarapa is upwards of $25 million a year.
