Book Description
"This report presents survey results for Alberta's secondary wood manufacturing industries in 2017. The survey compiled operational, employment, production, marketing, and financial information on nine business types. This is the second focused survey of the sector after the first one was conducted in 2013 allowing for comparisons between the two years and providing base information for continued tracking of the sector in subsequent years. The secondary wood manufacturing sector has grown tremendously over the past 20 years but certainly has struggled to grow over the last decade. The Alberta secondary wood product industries, clustered around Calgary and Edmonton, were significant users of Alberta's wood resources and suppliers of wood-based products to Alberta and the rest of North America. Most of the fibre used by Alberta manufacturers was in the form of lumber sourced from the Alberta market. The majority of sales were within Alberta (65%), with the rest distributed across British Columbia (8%), the Prairies (3%), eastern Canada (12%), and the United States (12%). Over one third of responding firms planned to expand operations, although a number of challenges were identified as hindering expansion opportunities. Market uncertainty and trade barriers, along with high cost and an inexperienced labour force, were identified as the most pressing challenges facing the industry"--Abstract, page v.

Book Description
"This report presents survey results for Saskatchewan (SK) and Manitoba (MB)'s secondary wood manufacturing industries in 2017. The survey is part of the Canadian Forest Service (CFS) survey program on secondary wood manufacturing products across Canada; it compiles operational, employment, production, marketing, and financial information on nine business types. Most firms were in the south of the provinces where the population and demand for those products is concentrated. We estimated that SK's secondary wood manufacturing industries employed 2,201 people and had sales of $305 million. MB's secondary wood manufacturing industries were more than double the size of those in SK with 4,887 employees and $714 million sales. For both SK and MB, the majority of sales were within the provinces. Markets for MB products were more diverse with 35% exported to the rest of Canada and 13% to the United States. Of the responding firms, 41% in MB and 19% in SK hoped to expand operations, although firms reported several barriers to expansion plans. Market issues were identified as the most pressing challenges facing the industry in both provinces"--Abstract, page v.

Book Description
"This report presents survey results for Alberta's secondary wood manufacturing industries in 2013. The survey compiled operational, employment, production, marketing, and financial information on nine business types. Additional information was acquired from Statistics Canada and Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada to provide supplemental trend data and information on panelboard industries. This is the first focused survey of the sector in many years and provides base information for continued tracking of the sector in subsequent years"--Abstract, p. vi.

Book Description
"This report presents the 2017 survey results for the secondary wood product manufacturing industries in New Brunswick (NB) and Nova Scotia (NS). The surveys were part of the Canadian Forest Service's first nationwide survey of secondary manufacturing. We collected operational, employment, production, marketing, and financial information on nine business types. Analysis of the survey results provides a comprehensive picture of the state of these industries and allows for comparison with similar surveys conducted by the Canadian Forest Service. Cabinet, furniture, and millwork manufacturers represent the largest subsector in our survey, accounting for 44% of NB and 61% of NS firms. We estimate that secondary manufacturers in NB employed 2,870 full-time equivalent workers, generating $491 million in sales. Nova Scotia's secondary manufacturers employed approximately 922 full-time equivalent workers, generating $152 million in sales"--Abstract, page v.

Book Description
While there are many companies in Alberta involved in secondary manufacturing of solid wood products, little information was available on the nature, extent, and activities of the various industry sectors involved. This report identifies the present status of such products, as well as both existing and potential markets. Information is given on each of the secondary manufacturing industry sectors, the types of companies involved and the raw material consumed, and the level of activity of the sector. The results of market studies in Toronto and the United States Midwest are summarized with a commentary on the potential for Alberta manufacturers. A list of manufacturers contacted is included, with name and address of company, the nature of its business, and its size.

Book Description
"The British Columbia forest industry continuously faces challenges from commodity market volatility, increased global competition, and declining timber supply. Such challenges were front and centre during the housing and financial crisis in the United States and subsequent great recession of 2007-2009. This report presents survey results for the province's secondary wood manufacturing industries in 2016. The survey gathered operational, employment, production, marketing, and financial information on business types, with supplemental information gathered for panelboard producers. Analysis of the survey results provides a comprehensive picture of the state of the sector's industries and allows for comparison with past surveys conducted by the Canadian Forest Service, including the last one undertaken in 2012. The industry has grown since the last survey, but the relative economic contribution of the two largest subsectors, remanufacturing and engineered wood products, remained largely unchanged. The changes occurred among the smaller subsectors, with strong growth in shakes and shingles and other wood products offsetting the decline in millwork"--Abstract, page v.

Book Description
"This report presents the results of a survey of the British Columbia secondary manufacturing wood industry for 2006. The survey gathered operational, employment, production, marketing and financial information on nine business types, with supplemental information added for a tenth, firms producing panelboards. The information is analyzed to provide both a quantitative and qualitative picture of the current structure and significance of secondary manufacturing, and sector trends through comparison to previous surveys."--Document.
