Renewable Energy & Local Impact
Designed to be the most eco-friendly plant CGC has ever constructed, the facility will feature state-of-the-art innovations.
Powered by clean electricity, an on-site solar field, and industry-leading advancements, our Wheatland Manufacturing Plant is engineered for maximum efficiency. Here, we'll be able to produce high-quality wallboard with minimal water usage, lower energy consumption, and near-zero waste. By producing wallboard closer to our customers in Western Canada, we're not only enhancing service speed and accessibility but also significantly reducing transportation emissions for a more sustainable future.
Cutting-Edge Innovation & Zero Waste Manufacturing
CGC is redefining sustainability with a zero-waste approach, ensuring that 100% of production waste is recycled back into manufacturing, eliminating landfill contributions. A high-efficiency, gas-fired kiln recovers evaporated water, reducing energy consumption, while USG's advanced calcining technology transforms gypsum into stucco using the lowest available embodied energy. Complete with its high-efficiency lighting throughout the facility, our Wheatland Plant is truly one of the industry's most sustainable wallboard plants.
What We Choose Today Builds Tomorrow
“
At USG, we think about how sustainability benefits our company as well as our customers. It drives where we invest, particularly in continuously improving and innovating across our products and processes.
”
Chris Griffin, USG President and CEO

From sponsoring local events like the Strathmore Stampede and Aggie Days to supporting vital organizations such as the Trellis Society and Siksika Family Services, we’ve worked hand-in-hand with the people who make this region special. Whether it’s raising over $24,000 through our Cowboy Coral silent auction or donating to the Carseland Fire Hall and charitable organizations through our Give Local program, the goal is simple: to help build a stronger, more connected community.
