PROFILE |
 |
Canfor has a can-do attitude when it comes to forest products. Canfor is Canada's largest producer of lumber and a leading producer of pulp. The company's lumber products include dimension lumber, studs, plywood, and trim board. Canfor's woodland operations are almost exclusively located on public lands in British Columbia and Alberta, and contain more than 9 million cubic meters (around 1.2 million cubic yards) of potential lumber. Through Howe Sound Pulp and Paper, a joint venture with Oji Paper Ltd., the company produces kraft pulp and newsprint. Canfor's Polar and Kodiak brands of kraft paper are used to produce multiwall bags. Nearly three-fourths of Canfor's sales are in North America.
