Campbell Global acquires 100,000 acres of forest property in Washington

Dec 16, 2015. /Lesprom Network/. Campbell Global has completed the purchase of over 100,000 acres of timberlands in the Puget Sound region of Washington state, as the company said in the press release received by Lesprom Network.

The property is located east of Seattle and was previously managed by the Hancock Timber Resource Group. The property, which has been well managed as productive timberland for many years, is comprised mostly of Douglas fir and Western Hemlock. The majority of the land base is also subject to a conservation easement that limits future development while it is also privately managed as a “working forest.”

“Campbell Global is dedicated to managing the timberlands we acquire with the highest standards of sustainability and environmental care,” said Campbell Global’s President and CEO, John Gilleland.

In addition to active reforestation efforts, Campbell Global’s stewardship of the property includes maintaining its SFI® Certification, a designation that requires third-party audits to verify the implementation of best management practices. This includes enhancing wildlife habitat, maintaining functional riparian zones and using modern logging techniques.

Campbell Global is a leader in sustainable timberland and natural resource investment management, built on a foundation of quality service, expertise, and integrity. The firm currently manages approximately 3 million acres (1.2 million hectares) worldwide.
