Promac Sawmill

Sawmills and shipbuilding on the west coast have long gone hand-in-hand, stretching all the way back to the first sawmills in southern Oregon. From the first, foundational sailing vessels of the Simpson Shipyard, to the later, larger, and more advanced post-WWI steam schooners of Kruse & Banks, timber from local sawmills has served as the predominant building material for ships of every shape and size!

The sawmill industry continues to grow and thrive, and new facilities like the Gloster Sawmill in southwest Mississippi are helping to lead the way. As the largest facility in the family-owned Big River Forest Products group, the Gloster mill represents the company’s first state-of-the-art sawmill operation, and will serve as a great demonstration of what modern investment in lumber production can achieve.

If you're attending, look for our table, hosted by our Sr. Technical Sales Rep, James, and stop by to say hello. We'd love to see you there!

Every mill's got it's own challenges, priorities, and objectives, and your equipment should reflect that.
