What are the main end-uses for wood shavings and the softwood industrys by-products?
The main by-product of the softwood lumber industries finishing of wood is “sawdust” mixed with “shavings”. As left by the lumber mill, the shavings are extremely dusty, dirty, and filled with debris (bulk shavings providers often ship unscreened product direct from the lumber mill). However, all Champion Shavings product is 100% screened after leaving the mill, but before entering our bags. We separate finer, fluffier, and coarser shavings pieces according to our strict specifications.
