In October 2022, Core used its truck dump conveyer system to receive Southern Yellow Pine Hardwood Chips. By lifting the entire truck, the woodchips slide out of the rear doors into a hopper and connect to a conveyor system that will stockpile material on designated storage pads. The woodchips will be shipped to Coatzacoalcos, Mexico.
Core Industries operates one of the world’s largest bulk woodchip handling facilities for customers manufacturing pulp, paper and medium density fiberboard. The facility is equipped to receive woodchips by both barge and truck and can handle in excess of 2 million tons per year.
