PROFILE |
 |
Nexfor is one company that won't get lost in the woods. Formerly Noranda Forest, Nexfor produces building products (about half of sales) and specialty papers and pulp. The company is a top producer of oriented strand board (OSB), an increasingly popular engineered wood panel that threatens to unseat plywood in the building-materials market. Other building products include lumber, fiberboard, particleboard, and plywood. Nexfor also makes woodfree and groundwood paper. The company has more than 20 mills and production facilities in Canada, the UK, and the US, with cutting rights in Canada and the US. Diversified energy company Brascan owns 34% of Nexfor.
