The American Wood Council (AWC) is a trade association that represents North American wood products manufacturers.[1]
North American membership includes companies and industry associations; among them, Boise Cascade LLC, Canfor USA/New South, Georgia-Pacific LLC, Interfor Corporation, Kapstone, Louisiana Pacific, Masonite, Norbord Inc., Plum Creek Timber, Potlatch Corp., Sierra Pacific Industries, West Fraser, West Rock Company, Weyerhaeuser Company, and the Canadian Wood Council.[2]
History[edit]
AWC was re-chartered in June 2010, with a broader mandate than a former predecessor namesake.[3] Up until 2010, the wood products industry was represented by the American Forest & Paper Association (AF&PA), which now represents pulp and paper manufacturers.[4]
