Columbia Forest Products

Founded in 1957, Columbia Forest Products is North America's premier manufacturer of hardwood plywood and hardwood veneer products. Columbia's decorative interior veneers and panels are used in cabinetry, fine furniture, architectural millwork and commercial fixtures. Employee-owned and headquartered in Greensboro, North Carolina, Columbia Forest Products operates plants throughout the United States and Canada, with an operational network that spans the globe. Columbia's products are sold through a network of wholesale distributors, mass merchandisers and original equipment manufacturers from three distinct business units: plywood, veneer and imports. At the end of 2006 Columbia has converted all of its standard hardwood plywood production to produce formaldehyde-free panels called PureBond®.
