Rayonier Research Biometrician Stephanie Patton explains what a Forest Biometrician does and what it takes to become one.

We talked to a research material engineer for the USDA’s Forest Service, Ron Sabo, Ph.D., about nanocellulose in tech, how it’s used in screens and other technology, and why it may offer a more sustainable choice for the future of tech.

Rayonier’s commitment to sustainable forest management requires that we understand both the physical and transition risks posed by climate change, to the ecosystems we manage and society in general.

Paper products like toilet paper play an important role in keeping private forest owners—who plant 2.5 billion trees a year—going strong.

We gather our pinecones by the tractor trailer load, but only the best will do. We share how we breed and collect the best cones and extract their seeds for future forests.

We are dedicated to meeting the highest standards of sustainable forestry established by SFI, Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®), and the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification™ (PEFC™).

Did you know Rayonier partners with research cooperatives in the forestry industry to ensure we all continue to grow strong, healthy, sustainable forests?

Rayonier was recently selected as an industry leader in innovative forestry management for a segment on Inside The Blueprint.

Sustainable forest management involves a perpetual cycle of planting trees, allowing those trees to grow, harvesting those trees for use in various forest products, and then replanting new trees to begin the cycle anew.

Wildfire records now seem to be broken every year. According to the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC), 48,331 fires have burned over 6 million acres across the United States, with 46 active wildfires continuing to burn as of September 1, 2022.
