Who are we?

Sapulut Forest Development Sdn Bhd, or fondly known as Sapulut, is a sustainable forestry company in Sapulut, located in the state of Sabah, Malaysia.

For many decades, Sabah's rain forest was logged extensively for its valuable timber. Although such uncontrolled practices have since ceased, its effect is still felt today. Many once forested regions are so badly degraded they are lost forever. As a responsible forestry company, we hope to reverse the damage. Hence, we are making it our mission, bringing back the natural forest and manage it sustainably.

We treasure the forest not only for its beautiful timbers but also as a habitat to a plethora of flora and fauna, as well as the native communities. To enhance the forests under our care, we are determined to restore parts of the degraded forest with well-thought replanting programs that includes indigenous and wildlife-friendly trees. This increases biodiversity and is the key to reviving the ecosystem to provide economic, environment and social services.

If you find our quest interesting and want to help us make a difference, we would be delighted to hear from you.

Thank you.
