321: Wood Product Manufacturing
Industries in the Wood Product Manufacturing subsector manufacture wood
products, such as lumber, plywood, veneers, wood containers, wood
flooring, wood trusses, manufactured homes (i.e., mobile home), and
prefabricated wood buildings. The production processes of the Wood
Product Manufacturing subsector include sawing, planing, shaping,
laminating, and assembling of wood products starting from logs that are
cut into bolts, or lumber that then may be further cut, or shaped by
lathes or other shaping tools. The lumber or other transformed wood
shapes may also be subsequently planed or smoothed, and assembled into
finished products, such as wood containers.
The Wood Product Manufacturing subsector includes establishments that
make wood products from logs and bolts that are sawed and shaped, and
establishments that purchase sawed lumber and make wood products. With
the exception of sawmills and wood preservation establishments, the
establishments are grouped into industries mainly based on the specific
products manufacutured.
