Beginnings of Power at Newark

The day began as a crane moved pieces of the unit off the truck and into place.

By the end of the day, phase one of the power station install is completed.

Yesterday marked phase one of CitiLog Newark's power station install. Our team worked throughout the day as components of the station were delivered on to the site. With the assistance of the crew, a large crane positioned the components into place.

Once the power unit is complete our site will be 100% self-sufficient; producing our own electricity, heating, and eventually cooling. Due to the unique characteristics of urban trees such as holes, rot, metal containment, etc., urban areas have a high rate of unusable and disposable wood. CitiLog uses this disposable wood to create green power.

CitiLog will have more updates following our power station install in the weeks to come!”

Upcycled Urban Wood Waste Transformed into New Garden Beds

New Garden Beds at Fountain Park, Secaucus, NJ

Locally harvested urban hardwood was upcycled and transformed into rustic garden beds at Secaucus, New Jersey's Fountain Park. The upcycled urban garden beds will not only act as a decorative element within the park, but will also serve as an educational model within the community to represent the importance of upcycling and sustainable practices.

Thank you to the Town of Secaucus and Mayor Gonnelli for supporting our efforts in upcycling urban trees!

Yesterday, Citilog Newark held our ribbon cutting ceremony to celebrate the opening of our zero waste sawmill facility in Newark, NJ. Citilog was joined by over 215 guests who experienced the site first hand.
At Citilog Newark, no material goes to waste. Urban wood that cannot be used for finished products will be used in the production of generating our own heat and energy. Citilog is setting a new standard for the transformational role local businesses can play in economic development, green job creation, and sustainability.
Guest speakers included Mayor Cory Booker of Newark, and Mayor Robert Bowser of East Orange. The importance of Citilog's sustainable actions and commitment to community development was shared by all. Citilog employees also spoke about their personal experiences at the new Sawmill.
