Kennedy Saw Mills Inc is a sawmill based in Shreveport that specializes in salvaging and repurposing urban trees and old timber pilings. The company was founded following the discovery that large circular sawmills avoid processing urban trees due to metal contamination risks. It focuses on turning otherwise discarded wood, such as mature pecan trees and historic timber pilings, into durable and useful lumber products. The company emphasizes sustainability by preventing wood waste and creating long-lasting wood materials.
