Sustainable Development is becoming a fast-growing concept that all industries aim for, but only a few could do. It challenges companies to attain growth through the use of sound, eco-friendly practices to meet the current human needs, and will benefit even the generations to come. It is a daunting task, but one that can be done.

Casilayan Softwood Development Corporation (CSDC) has the principle of Sustainable Development at the core of its operations, rehabilitating Degraded Residual Forests (DRF) into commercial tree plantations of fast-growing tree species, to be processed for the match wood requirements of JAKA's match companies.

CSDCs operation works on attaining environment, economic and socio-political sustainability, not only for the JAKAGROUP, but also for the communities nearby.
