Hardwood
Boral's hardwood business operates 14 manufacturing facilities in New South Wales and distributes product to domestic and export markets. The business has a strong position in both structural and flooring markets. Boral exports small quantities of woodchips processed from sawmill waste, forest residues and plantation stock from the hardwood operation in northern New South Wales.

Softwood
Boral's single softwood manufacturing facility is based at Oberon in New South Wales and operates through a joint venture with Carter Holt Harvey. The mill has a capacity of around 725,000m3 following a recent upgrade. The mill has not produced to full capacity to date due to a weak domestic housing market. Softwood products are primarily sold in east coast markets.

Plywood
Boral is Australia's leading plywood producer and operates one large plywood operation at Ipswich in Queensland. Products are sold in all major Australian markets.
