Roseburg Ceases Production Of Hardwood Plywood

Roseburg Forest Products (Springfield, Ore.) announced that it has ceased operations at its last remaining hardwood plywood plant and will exit the hardwood plywood market.

The company says it plans to concentrate resources on a more focused product portfolio.

“The market has shifted significantly, with lower-cost imports now accounting for roughly 80% of the U.S. market,” the company said in a news release.

Roseburg will lay off its 107 employees at the Dillard Hardwood Plywood facility but they will “receive dedicated support and resources during the transition.”
