Canfor Corp. will optimize its footprint in southern Alabama by permanently closing its aging Jackson facility and expanding production at its Fulton facility with a second shift.
The moves, together with the previously announced construction of a new, state-of-the art greenfield sawmill in Axis, Al., will grow the company’s regional manufacturing platform by 100 million bd. ft. of production capacity and consolidate operations at modern facilities that are well positioned to be competitive for the long-term.
“Canfor is working to optimize our operational footprint in southern Alabama to ensure we have well-capitalized and highly efficient manufacturing facilities,” said Lee Goodloe, president, Canfor Southern Pine.
