Western Red Cedar

Our sawmill manufactures Western Red Cedar logs into decking, fencing, sidings and trim board products of the highest grade standards used. Porcupine cuts slow-growing second growth logs with less than 20″ butt diameter. These logs produce exceptional lumber with tight grain and small knots. This fiber is ideal for decking, dimension, fencing, and sidings.

We produce cedar products that are among the best, if not the very best available. We are certified under Program for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) in the spring of 2009.

About Porcupine

Porcupine Wood Products Ltd. was established in 1993, in Salmo, British Columbia – the south-east corner of the province. The facility consists of a sawmill with a small and large log breakdown line, a planner mill, and a re-manufacturing plant. The business is family owned and operated, with over 35 years of experience in the forest industry.

Our annual production is based on a single shift capacity of approximately 30 mmbf.

We are a fully integrated forest company. Our model is to extract value from the logs we process, starting with the harvesting of Western Red Cedar logs and through to the finished product. Using this model, we can do more with the sustainable wood basket we have to work with.
