For more than 35 years, Wood-Mizer has earned the reputation as the world’s leading manufacturer of portable band sawmills with more than 70,000 bandmills sold in 120 countries around the globe. With branch offices located on five continents and more than 100 authorized distributors worldwide, Wood-Mizer is committed to global customer success with sawmill equipment that will successfully mill any type of wood species from softwoods to extreme hardwoods. “I do not think that there is a country in the world that does not have at least one of our sawmills,” said Richard Vivers, Wood-Mizer CEO.

Wood-Mizer equips the modern timber processor with smarter products that increase profitability and promote sustainability. “People are much more aware of the need to conserve and maintain forest cover,” said Vivers. “They are realizing how important it is for the environment and preserving the resource for the future. We want to play our part in that as well.” The Wood-Mizer portable line of sawmills and wood processing equipment provide a wide range of opportunities for small businesses and individuals including foresters, arborists, woodworkers, and farmers. They are actively growing their local economies, creating jobs, and improving living standards in all corners of the world.

In addition, Wood-Mizer industrial sawmills and smart log processing lines are capable of commercial-level production, while still leveraging the inherent advantages of the thin-kerf blades – lower operational costs and higher yield from every log. “I very firmly believe that Wood-Mizer is a very viable method of cutting logs into sawn timber,” said Vivers. “It is an easy, low-energy and ecologically friendly method of sawmilling. You can have a small, one-man business or you can build into a very large business.”
