Responsible Wood Sourcing
Enviva augments the productivity of working forests in the U.S. Southeast by purchasing the parts of the harvested wood that are generally not utilized in other higher-value markets, such as the tops and limbs of trees, crooked or diseased trees, slash, understory, and thin tree lengths. Enviva strictly adheres to our Responsible Sourcing Policy, which highlights our commitment to forest stewardship and the highest standards of sustainability and integrity.

Responsible Sourcing Policy
We augment the productivity of working forests and strive to only source from forests that will be maintained as forests.
Third-Party Wood Pellet Sustainable Purchasing Practices
Our due diligence process ensures that the suppliers we work with are meeting the same high standards we would expect of our own production.
Track & Trace®
Track & Trace® (T&T) is Enviva’s leading-edge sustainable sourcing program. T&T provides transparent sourcing data and allows us and our stakeholders to identify the source of our wood to its origin in the forest and to further monitor and audit our procurement activities.
