Forest Certification

Spray Lakes Sawmills began its pursuit of attaining 3rd party forest certification in 1996. From 1996 through 2009, Spray Lake Sawmills was certified under the Alberta ForestCare certification program. SLS obtained international 3rd party forest certification in 2013 and continues to be forest certified by internationally recognized programs.

  3. Not harvested from genetically modified (GM) trees;
