Our People

From Charles S. Chapman, Weyerhaeuser's first "scientifically trained" forester in 1924, to our cutting-edge experts of today, our people have a legacy of putting science to work for you.

Weyerhaeuser's geneticists, pathologists, biochemists and other research scientists are world-renowned leaders in the field who pioneered:

  • Tree improvement breeding and testing
  • Seedling growing technology
  • Root-development predictions
  • Wrenching treatments for seedling culturing

And it doesn't stop there, as we believe we've just scratched the surface of what can be achieved. For a glimpse into the future of biotechnology, view an article in Solutions! magazine by the great great grandson of Weyerhaeuser's founder.
