The old mill, acquired by the Dion family, has been completely rebuilt since 1993.<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition, major expansions including the installation of state-of-the-art technology in 2007, 2010, 2012 and 2017 have enabled the company to position itself as a leader in its field in Quebec.<\/span><\/p>\n

The company continues to improve and upgrade its equipment, allowing us to remain a leader in the industry.
The certification of our plant under the FSC environmental standard enables us to meet our clients\u2019 needs through our chain of custody.
<\/span><\/p>\n

This year, we expect to produce approximately 100,000,000 board feet.<\/span><\/p>\n
