Canfor Corporation announces it has completed the acquisition of
PinkWood Ltd, Western Canada’s largest I-joist facility based in
Calgary, Alberta. The acquisition, announced on June 9, 2026,
complements Canfor’s existing operations in Alberta and British
Columbia.
“We’re excited to welcome the PinkWood operation, its management
team and its employees to the Canfor family,” said Susan

represents a strong strategic fit for both companies and
supports the continued growth of Canfor’s value-added
