Sawmills and Wood Preservation

Establishments in the NAICS 3211 industry primarily engage in the production of lumber and wood products through the operation of sawmills and the application of wood preservation techniques. The core activities include sawing logs into lumber, producing wood chips, and treating wood to prevent decay and insect damage. This industry is distinguished from related industries by its focus on the initial processing of raw timber into usable wood products and the application of treatments to enhance the durability and longevity of wood materials.
