Nordic Veneer has ceased operations at its Roseburg facility after 72 years in business. The company's final production day was July 2nd, leading to the layoff of most of its approximately 55 employees. Plant Manager Bayley Adams cited intense international competition and rising wood supply costs as significant challenges. A major blow came in April when a primary buyer, Roseburg Forest Products, stopped purchasing their veneer. The company is now considering selling the facility or waiting for a more favorable market.
