August 18, 2021: Enjoy the Return to the Old Normal

Return to Lumber Connection

Justin Binning and Ken Timmins with American International Forest Products (AIFP) provide a snapshot of the current lumber market. Summer weather is impacting construction, helping to prolong the current oversupply of most lengths and sizes of lumber. As the market drops, mills will likely begin to reign in production to restore a balance between supply and demand. Both experts agree now is a good time to invest for the fall before demand may again outstrip supply. 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.
