Fibreco has been a leading supplier of wood chips to the world pulp and paper industry since 1977. As specialists in the sales marketing and trading of wood chips, Fibreco's team is committed to delivering quality products in required species and volumes, to domestic and international customers. Fibreco's expertise includes providing competitive markets for its wood chip suppliers.

Fibreco has been exporting to Japan for over twenty years and has a highly regarded reputation and excellent customer relationships throughout the pulp and paper industry.

Fibreco's softwood wood chips originate from suppliers in British Columbia. Species such as Spruce-Pine-Fir (SPF), Lodgepole Pine and Douglas Fir are produced from sawmill residual chips and through whole log chipping.

In 2005, Fibreco added wood pellet handling to its North Vancouver Terminal business. The pellets are shipped to Europe for bio-energy.

Wood Chip Marketing

The marketing group buys wood chips from external sources, and shareholders, and sells them to markets in British Columbia and Asia. Species are SPF, Douglas Fir and Spruce.

Custom Handling - Wood Chips

Fibreco custom handles wood chips for outside customers at its North Vancouver terminal. Wood chips are unloaded, stored as customers' inventory, and then loaded onto barge or ship for delivery.

Custom Handling - Wood Pellets

Wood pellets are either "hot fed" directly onto ships after being brought in by railcar, or stored for future shipment in six silos capable of holding 4500 metric tonnes each.
