STRATEGIES AND OBJECTIVES
Our Vision:
To be a leader in achieving an environmentally sustainable and commercially viable forest products industry providing economic and social benefits to the people of Western Australia.
Our Mission:
To contribute to Western Australia's economic and regional growth by:
- developing the sustainable use of the State's plantation and native forest resources;
- promoting innovation and local value adding for these resources; and
- achieving appropriate returns to the State for the use of publicly owned and Forest Product Commission-managed plantation and native forest resources.
Our Objectives:
- to provide forest products to industry from publicly owned and managed plantations and native forests, consistent with management plans;
- to increase the areas of hardwood and softwood plantations to meet regional development opportunities and environmental objectives; and
- to promote increased levels of economic return to WA from the use of forest products via an increased level of value-added production and downstream manufacturing; contributing to the marketing of forest products; contributing to the research and development of new products and timber processing techniques; providing leadership; and promoting the environmentally sustainable sale and use of lower grade and residual material.
