West Fraser Timber Co. Ltd.WFG
Materials

Revenue comes from lumber, North American engineered wood, pulp and paper, and European engineered wood products. The Norbord acquisition made OSB and European operations central to the portfolio.

Produces lumber alongside North American engineered wood products—OSB, LVL, MDF, plywood, and particleboard—and also operates pulp and paper and European engineered wood businesses.

Canadian operations remain central, while a long expansion in the U.S. South and the Norbord acquisition built a footprint spanning Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Europe. The company has grown through mills and timber-linked assets, then refocused its portfolio around wood products.

Low-cost operations, reinvestment, safe operations, and stewardship of renewable forest resources are stated operating priorities. Canadian softwood-lumber trade disputes and related countervailing and antidumping duties shape the business.
