Armstrong Division, Armstrong, BC
The Armstrong Division was acquired in 2004 as part of our purchase of Riverside Forest Products. The purchase included three separate mills at the Armstrong site – a lumber mill, a plywood plant, and a co-generation plant, as well as the Eagle Rock Reforestation Centre. These sites combined employ a total of 400 people. Since its purchase, Armstrong division has become an integral part of Tolko, assisting us in our goal to become a world-class, globally-competitive forest products company.
