Chester Wood Products, based in Chester, S.C., produces softwood plywood panels and veneer for a variety of end markets. Moncure Plywood, based in Moncure, N.C., is a flexible specialty plywood mill that produces both hardwood and softwood panels.
In 2004, Wood Resources, an operating unit of Greenwich, Conn.-based Atlas Holdings LLC, acquired Chester and Moncure from Weyerhaeuser Corp. amid uncertainty about both mills' futures in an industry undergoing significant consolidation.
