Running 47 years and counting, our medium-density fiberboard plant in Columbia Falls, Mont., is the oldest continuously operating MDF manufacturing facility in the world. One of its two presses, in fact, is still the original, and thanks to care and innovation it has remained in excellent working condition even as much of the equipment around it and overall production capacity has evolved. “At the center of it all is a steam-powered, 5-by-18-foot Washington Ironworks press that’s never been rebuilt and never seen any downtime,” says Shiloh Keibler, production superintendent. “That’s a result of very savvy people coming up with all kinds of brilliant hacks to keep it going.”
Two of our employees in Oregon — Anya Hall, seed orchard manager, and Jill Bell, area manager — are featured speakers at this year’s Women of Forestry capstone workshop for the Starker Lecture Series at College of Forestry at Oregon State University. The workshop will focus on women’s leadership and the future of women in forestry and the wood products industry.
