Loscam is planning for significant expansion of its pallet rental business in Asia and as such is looking to work with leading sawmillers NF McDonnell in Australia to satisfy its growing timber demand.
"As our business continues to expand in Asia we need to make sure we are sourcing the very best quality timber to supplement our local Asian supply", said Kusol Kiatsommart, Loscam's regional operations head for South East Asia, from the opening of McDonnells new mill expansion.
"Sourcing from Australia also gives us flexibility in ensuring our mix of timber for Asia is well balanced, sustainable and of the highest quality".
Loscam Australia's timber supplier, NF McDonnell and Sons sawmilling is set to send its first regular export shipment to South East Asia following a $2m upgrade of its facilities. The operation on Suttontown Road recently officially opened stage one of its multi-million-dollar expansion.
