Redwood Timbers & Uppers Selected as A+Product Awards Popular Choice Winner

Product awarded in the Positive Impact category

Humboldt Sawmill Company is pleased to announce that Redwood Timbers & Uppers has been selected as the 2024 Architizer A+Product Awards Popular Choice Winner in the Positive Impact category. Architizer A+Product Jury and Popular Choice Winners were announced on June 3, 2024.

“This is an exciting recognition for Redwood Timbers & Uppers and especially meaningful coming from the architectural community,” states Jessica Hewitt, Director, Marketing for Humboldt Sawmill Company.

Redwood Timbers & Uppers exemplify positive impact in a few ways. Sourced from nearly 450,000 acres of responsibly managed timberlands in Northern California, Redwood Timbers & Uppers is certified to the standards of the Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC® C013133). Additionally, USDA Forest Service researchers have found that Redwood lumber stores about 12 times the total greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) released during cradle-to-gate product manufacturing. This means that Redwood stores more carbon than is emitted during manufacturing. Lastly, the Redwood industry supports hundreds of workers and their families in rural communities of the Western USA.

Humboldt Sawmill Company provides complete architectural specification resources including CSI 3-part and Canadian CSC formatted specification, BIM objects, CAD drawings, product catalogs, and LEED credit information. The company also offers three American Institute of Architects (AIA) LU/HSW accredited CEU courses accepted by more than 25 associations for their respective continuing education requirements.
