Proud Partnership with BP
Chouinard Bros is a Platinum Certified Installer for the top roofing materials manufacturer in Canada. We proudly partner with BP because of their ongoing environmental efforts. Their efforts include and are not limited to:
- REDUCING OUR ENVIRONMENTAL FOOTPRINT – BP is revolutionizing the method of stacking shingles on pallets to additionally reduce waste during transportation. Read more about the new stacking standards.
- RECYCLING PAPER – BP has a paper recycling depot at the Edmonton plant
- REDUCING WASTE – BP has reduced waste by HALF at the LaSalle & Edmonton plants
- NATURAL WOOD FIBRE – BP uses a 100% recyclable natural wood fibre for roof insulator materials. Made from recycled wood (post-industrial waste and post-consumer waste). The residue from this manufacturing process is converted into safe fertilizers that are given to local farmers. And most materials are purchased within a 150km radius of the plant to reduce carbon trail. Read more about Natural Wood Fibre.
