"We're looking forward to adding Lamco LFL product to our portfolio," said Paul Watterson, general manager for Georgia-Pacific's engineered lumber business. "It complements our line of I-joist, LVL, rim board and glulam products, as well as adds a product that helps meet fire-related codes being adopted in some of the geographies in which we sell."

Andrew Dingman, Lamco vice president of sales and market development added, "We are proud to work with Georgia-Pacific because of their history of providing high-quality engineered wood products to the construction industry. We look forward to our relationship and helping grow this business by meeting the needs of our customers today and in the future."
