Underwater Logging

An Eco-Friendly Wood Choice

Using its patented Sawfish™ technology, Triton's harvesting team carefully cuts and raises standing trees from the bottom of hydro dam reservoirs flooded over the past century.

In this oxygen-deprived environment, wood-decaying fungi and microbes are unable to attack the wood, leaving it in a non-living, but preserved state.

Triton harvested wood products are certified by the Rainforest Alliance’s SmartWood™ Rediscovered Wood program and are sought after by consumers, architects, manufacturers and builders who seek a clear environmental wood choice.

Triton wood is available in a growing variety of species and cuts – from tropical hardwoods to northern softwoods; from poles and square timbers, to beautiful flooring and paneling.
