Our Industry

Alberta’s forest products industry and the AFPA work together to develop public awareness of the industry, fostering a greater understanding of the economic, environmental, and social values of Alberta’s forests.

As the primary certification agency in Alberta, the AFPA is responsible for ensuring the quality of each piece of stamped lumber originating from its members.
