Plant Description
Atlantic Veneer Corporation makes hardwood veneers. Logs are brought to the facility,
debarked and sawed to length, logs are soaked in log vats to aid in slicing, and the veneers are
then sliced from the logs. The veneer strips are dried in steam heated driers. All plywood
operations were stopped on December 15, 2009. Boiler 3 was removed in spring of 2018.
