How Value-Added Wood Processors impact BC

We create more BC jobs per log harvested

After a log is converted into lumber, we recut, kiln-dry, plane and form the wood into new products. It is a labour-intensive process that ensures more jobs are created in BC.

We Invest 100% back into our communities

Our member companies are small- to medium-sized, family-owned businesses that are 100% BC-owned and operated.

We are the innovators and the future.

To be successful in secondary or value-added wood manufacturing, we must innovate constantly. We are the incubator for developing new wood products, new processes, and new markets.
