Marking its first international acquisition, Roseburg Forest Products, Springfield, Or., has agreed to purchase Pembroke MDF’s medium density fiberboard and molding production facilities in northeastern Ontario, Canada.
The deal closed April 9th.
Roseburg is currently building an engineered wood products plant in Chester, S.C., and recently acquired 158,000 acres of timberland in Virginia and North Carolina.
“The Pembroke plant and its employees present untapped potential that can be used to better serve existing and future customers of our innovative and versatile MDF product line,” said Mark Avery, Roseburg senior VP of industrial products & national accounts. “It’s an exciting opportunity for Roseburg to move into the northeastern region and further diversify our operations and meet demand.”
Roseburg currently owns and operates an MDF plant in Medford, Or., which produces the company’s Arreis, Medite, Medex, Permacore and Fibrlite product lines. “The addition of the Pembroke MDF plant means Roseburg customers will have access to a broader portfolio of products from a company with a demonstrated, long-term commitment to the industry,” said Jim Buffington, business director for industrial products.
