ArbreCorp Ltee is a sawmill operation in Quebec, Canada, that is owned by major forest products company but operates independently of the parent company. It was built 30 years ago and completely updated with new machinery 5 years ago. ArbreCorp receives raw logs from the area for cutting and planing into building-grade lumber, mostly 2 by 4 and 2 by 6 pieces of standard lengths. Higher grade logs leave ArbreCorp's sawmill department in finished form and are sent directly to the packaging department. The remaining 40 percent of sawmill output are cuts from lower grade logs, requiring further work by the planing department.
