Forest products are everywhere. From the shelves housing books in your local library, to the packaging your weekly groceries come in. Many of these products are made right here in Wisconsin in mills (where the raw material is processed) and in converting facilities (where the processed material is given value). But mills and converters aren’t the only part of the industry – it also includes the supply chain from trucking the logs to the mill to building the manufacturing equipment.

The innovation, sustainability, and diversification of these products continue to enhance our lives. Wisconsin is the #1 papermaking state and the forest products industry is one of the top ten industries in the state (WIDNR), making it the perfect place to start a career in a critical industry.
