Forest Products Commission, WA

Forest Products Commission, WA We are responsible for a vibrant, sustainable forestry industry across diverse environment in Western Australia.

The Forest Products Commission (FPC) is a government trading enterprise committed to close engagement with communities, industry, and government to support a vibrant, sustainable forestry industry. Working in plantation and native forestry across the diverse environment of Western Australia, the FPC delivers timber products and services across three business segments – softwood, native forest, and

sandalwood. We are shaping the industry’s future with our key priorities of timber production, forest health, and adapting to the challenges of climate change. We supply essential timber products for the housing and construction industry in Western Australia, as well as for biomass, furniture making, artisans, and firewood. Sandalwood is used for incense, perfume, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.

🌱 Growing strong at FPC's West Manjimup Nursery 🌱

Our West Manjimup Nursery is now into the plant tending stage of the year, where our young pine seedlings get the care they need to thrive. This includes regular watering, fertilising and applying treatments to support healthy early growth.💦

This year the team has sown 4.9 million seedlings, supported by ideal growing conditions - warm days and plenty of sunshine! This will help us continue to supply essential timber products for the WA community for years to come. 🏡

As well as tending the pine seedlings, the Manjimup crew are busy processing approximately approx. 2.3 million sandalwood seeds, collected late last year in Kojonup thanks to a fantastic joint effort between seasonal contract staff and FPC leaders. This includes cleaning and dehusking the seeds in preparation for regeneration planting as part of FPC’s ‘Operation Woylie’ sandalwood regeneration program.

This year, FPC proudly supported the 16 Days in WA campaign, standing together to stop family and domestic violence. 🧑‍🤝‍🧑

In line with the theme “Stopping Family and Domestic Violence: Play Your Part”, we partnered with Harbour Refuge and Support Services in South West WA to provide essential products that provide support for women and children affected by FDV. 🤝

Giving back strengthens communities but also our own sense of wellbeing. 🧘

As we celebrate the festive season, FPC encourages everyone to act, belong and commit to things in your community that you care about – because together, we can create safer, stronger communities. 🧡

As the year ends, we’re proud to celebrate a year of hard work, innovation and collaboration across all our sites.🌲💪

In FY25, FPC achieved $114 million in forest product sales and our Softwood Plantation Investment Program continued to thrive.💲

During 2025, we secured eight new plantation properties and planted 5.5 million seedlings with the help of good seasonal conditions. 🌱 🌱

This success shows our commitment to ongoing innovation and efficiency - enhanced by the introduction of the new TTA MidiPacker at our nursery and another year of mechanical planting, which significantly boosted productivity.

We also signed a new Heritage Agreement, working with Traditional Owners in the Goldfields to strengthen our understanding of Aboriginal culture and ensuring respectful treatment of cultural heritage values.

Safety remained our top priority as we launched our Critical Risk Management Program that aims to reduce injuries and focus on keeping everyone safe. 🦺

These achievements reflect the passion, commitment and teamwork of our incredible team, ensuring that we continue to keep our forests healthy and supply essential timber products for the WA community for years to come. 🏡

Wishing you all a TREEmendous festive season and a prosperous new year! 🎆
