Our mission is to help members cost-effectively meet their environmental and sustainability goals through basic and applied research, technical support, and education.
Our Particulate Matter Estimation Tool is designed to organize, summarize, and provide the most critical pieces of information on particulate matter emissions in a convenient and easy to use format. The tool provides our Members with links to NCASI’s published resources related to particulate matter emissions, additional unpublished NCASI data, explanations of relevant US EPA documents, email links to NCASI experts in each area, and a glossary section containing abbreviations and other terms.
Despite the similar environmental characteristics of forest harvesting and manufacturing facilities operated by NCASI Member Companies in Canada to those operated by our U.S. Members, the different land ownership pattern and regulatory platform create unique needs for science and data to help Canadian companies cost-effectively meet their environment and sustainability goals. NCASI’s Canadian Program is grounded in a research program to address the specific needs of our Canadian Member Companies.
NCASI U.S. Member Companies represent more than 90% of the paper and paperboard produced, nearly 70% of the wood panels produced, and more than half of industrial timberland acreage in the United States. In 2002, NCASI opened an office for Canadian operations in Montreal, and now our Canadian Membership makes up more than 50% of the industry in Canada.
Sustaining Member Companies include consulting firms, engineering firms, and analytical testing laboratories that provide environmental services to NCASI Member Companies.
