JUKEN NEW ZEALAND A GROWING PRESENCE IN NEW ZEALAND By making a major commitment to the New Zealand forestry and wood-processing industries, Juken Niew Zealand has become an important part of the community in Northland, the area of Wairarapa and the East Cape, creating employment for more than 1000 New Zealanders. Our long-term commitment to the New Zealand forestry and processing industries, and our philosophy of building success over time, is easily seen. In the 10 years to March 2000, JNL has invested NZ$293.5 million in New Zealand Forests, and NZ$324 million in Mills, a total investment of NZ$617.5 million. The Triboard mill in Kaitaia produces Triboard, Spaceboard, Strandboard, and Strandboard T&G. Our Masterton and Gisborne Mills produce Plywood, LVL, SLVL, LL and Kiln Dried Lumber for selected clients. The new Northland Mill produces Veneer and sawn lumber for selected clients. Each Juken New Zealand Mill features state-of-the-art technology that has been specifically selected for processing New Zealand pine. Our technology, combined with Juken innovation, provides an extensive range of engineered wood products for both local and export markets. An ongoing research and development programme ensures that our New Zealand pine resource continues to be processed into high-quality engineered wood products. RENEWABLE RESOURCE In 1990, Juken New Zealand purchased major Crown Forest licenses in three regions of New Zealand. In Northland, the Aupouri and Otangaroa Forests together with other leased forests have a productive area of 30,000 hectares. In the Wairarapa, the Ngaumu forest has 10,000 hectares of New Zealand Pine, plus 1,400 hectares of Douglas Fir and Corsican Pine. On the East Cape, the planted area of Wharerata and Patunamu Forests, plus additional purchases, amount to nearly 16,000 hectares .
