Interfor to temporarily reduce lumber production in British Columbia Interior, Canada

Interfor Сorporation (“Interfor”) plans to temporarily reduce production across its operating platform in the British Columbia Interior in 4Q 2018 due to a combination of declining lumber prices and escalating log costs.

The curtailment is expected to reduce production in the region by approximately 20% during the quarter and will be taken by way of reduced operating days and extended weekends/holiday breaks.

Interfor has three sawmills in the British Columbia Interior, with total annual capacity of approximately 750 million board feet.
Interfor is a growth-oriented lumber company with operations in Canada and the United States.
