About ARAUCO - North America
ARAUCO is a global company with the vision of improving people's lives by developing forest products for the challenges of a sustainable world. We manufacture a wide range of sustainable forest product solutions, including the industry's most-comprehensive selection of composite panels, premium plywood, millwork, lumber, and FSC-certified wood pulp.
ARAUCO’s commitment to quality, employees and customer service, ensure the company can meet or surpass the expectations of the construction, casework/fixture fabrication, architectural design, papermaking, and other industries in North America.
Market Growth, Economic Stimulus
In April 2017, ARAUCO conducted groundbreaking ceremonies in Grayling, Michigan, marking the official start of the construction phase for what will become the most modern particleboard plant in North America, and the largest of its kind globally. Slated for completion in late 2018, the plant will feature North America’s largest single continuous particleboard press (170 ft.) and will be one of the most productive in the world.
The plant location will improve the logistics of the entire chain of production, and support anticipated customer growth in the Midwest. In addition, ARAUCO anticipates the Grayling operations will create 700 construction jobs, 200 direct jobs at the plant; and one to two support jobs locally for every direct job.
