Jasper Lumber Co. is entering the homestretch of a $135-million modernization of its sawmill in Jasper, Al.
The upgrades will increase production capacity from 65 million to nearly 225 million bd. ft. annually. This expansion will necessitate a highly skilled labor force to operate and maintain the advanced equipment.
Plant manager Cliff Beall emphasized the importance of the workforce in this endeavor: "This entire investment is based on the dedication of our existing workforce and their commitment to embrace the opportunity to upgrade their skills and operate a state-of-the-art sawmill. We are excited about this project and its positive impact on our employees and the community."
The project started in 2020 and is on schedule to wrap up in 2026.
