Biofuel and Wood By-Products

Pembroke’s connection to forestry and wood product manufacturing runs deep in the community and continues to represent an area of opportunity thanks to our proximity to vital raw materials and wood by-product sources as well as, access to highway infrastructure, and proximity to major markets in Ottawa, Toronto, and Montreal.

To learn more about the wood products producers in the Ottawa Valley, visit the Ottawa Valley Wood Directory.
