Conifex Reducing Shift at its Glenwood Sawmill
Conifex Timber Inc. (“Conifex”) announced that commencing June 17, 2019, it is implementing a temporary curtailment with operations moving to one shift at its Glenwood, Arkansas sawmill for the foreseeable future, due to log supply shortages and poor market conditions.
The reduction is expected to reduce Conifex’s planned US South lumber production by approximately 4 million board feet in the second quarter of 2019.
