About Us

“WOODCYCLE” : a value chain centered on wood

Sumitomo Forestry Group is engaged in a broad range of global businesses centered on wood, including forestry management, the manufacture and distribution of wood building materials, the contracting of single-family homes and medium- to large-scale wooden buildings, real estate development, and wood biomass power generation. This unique value chain is represented in a diagram called "WOOD CYCLE."



By turning this "WOOD CYCLE" we can contribute to decarbonized society by increasing the amount of CO2 absorbed by forests, promoting carbon storage in wood, and carbon storage over the long term in wooden constructions. Through this entire business, we will contribute to CO2 absorption and fixation not only for our own company, but for society as a whole.
