Pacific Western Hemlock/Fir:
TSUGA HETEROPHYLLA/ABIES AMABILIS
British Columbia’s coastal forests and wet belt boast an abundance of Western Hem/Fir. The Hemlock can grow 30-50 metres tall (100-165 feet). The composition and strength of the mixture make it an ideal lumber for horizontal building and building over long spans of area. It is used in a broad spectrum of industries such as general construction and millwork. With its unique sap-free and strong nail-holding characteristic it makes a great option for the packaging industry. Also it is the choice product used in industrial applications such as access matting, crane matting, bridge timbers etc.
