Resolute’s Glenwood and Hagerstown sites meet highest certification standards

At Resolute, we are committed to implementing and maintaining rigorous third-party certifications at all of our operations. These kinds of certifications not only help guide our policies when it comes to the sustainability of our operations, they also let our many customers know that we share their commitment to social and environmental responsibility.

Recently, our facilities in Hagerstown (Maryland) and Glenwood (Arkansas) achieved ISO 14001:2015 certification for their environmental management systems. We have also maintained ISO 14001 EMS certification at all of our certified operations. It’s an important achievement, because in an age of heightened environmental consciousness and global challenges like climate change, biodiversity loss and resource depletion, organizations like ours have an important role to play. ISO 14001 offers a structured approach for businesses to address these and other concerns.

Bringing sophisticated operations into compliance with the highest environmental standards is a significant challenge and one that our teams were ready to meet. The Glenwood sawmill employs 161 people and produces 167 million board feet of lumber and decking annually. Meanwhile, the Hagerstown facility is a tissue converting operation where rolls supplied from our Calhoun (Tennessee) and Sanford (Florida) mills are converted into bath tissue, paper towels, napkins and facial tissue. The facility has an annual converting capacity of 21,900 short tons.

As a result of our efforts to meet the ISO 14001:2015 EMS standards, teams at both facilities learned that there were no “non-conformances” or “opportunities for improvement” identified at either location. It’s a significant achievement! We are proud of the fact that a very large number of our facilities are certified by recognized third-party organizations using only the highest, science-based standards.
