Roseburg Forest Products announced it has ceased operations at its Dillard Hardwood Plywood facility and will exit the hardwood plywood market.
The Dillard Hardwood Plywood plant, part of the company’s Dillard complex which also includes MDF and lumber production, was one of the company’s longest-operating facilities. The plant’s 107 team members are encouraged to apply for open positions at other facilities and will receive dedicated support and resources during the transition. All other operations at the Dillard complex will continue.
While hardwood plywood has been part of Roseburg’s portfolio for decades, the market has shifted significantly, with lower-cost imports now accounting for roughly 80% of the U.S. market.
Since April 2023, Roseburg has invested nearly $700 million in its Southern Oregon operations to support long-term growth and regional economic vitality. These investments include the launch of Armorite Exterior Trim at the company’s new Dillard Components facility, as well as upgrades and modernization efforts across existing plants in Douglas and Coos counties.
Founded in 1936, Roseburg Forest Products is a privately held company and one of North America’s leading producers of medium density fiberboard (MDF), plywood, lumber, exterior trim, and engineered wood products including I-joists, LVL, and rim board.
