Justin Binning and Ken Timmins with American International Forest Products (AIFP) provide a snapshot of the current lumber market. While lumber production appears in line with capacity, demand continues to outstrip it. Justin and Ken provide some advice on what CMs should do in the short term in this environment and what to expect in the near-future. Justin has been with AIFP since 2010 with a focus in Southern Yellow Pine and Ken has been with AIFP since 2017, specializing in Fir species. Both specialize in high grade lumber for the component manufacturing industry.
