Boise Cascade Company

A maker and wholesale distributor of building materials. Its Wood Products division manufactures engineered wood products like LVL, I-joists, and laminated beams, while its distribution arm supplies lumber and other building goods to customers including Home Depot and builders. Formed in 1957 when the Boise Payette Lumber Company merged with the Cascade Lumber Company, its name combines the two founding firms' names. Boise Payette's timberlands were so depleted by the post-war building boom that the merger brought in Cascade's fresh timber.
