American Wood Fibers (AWF) is proud to announce the construction of its newest plant in Marion, Virginia.   AWF has pioneered “total wood waste utilization” for over 40 years in many locations across North America.  The company specializes in recycling wood waste and other natural fibers to produce products for both consumers and manufacturers.  The Marion plant will employ approximately 50 people. Initial operating capability should be achieved in the summer of 2008.

Smyth County is an advantageous location for this new facility.  It offers excellent access to highways, an abundant supply of wood residue, quality people to hire, and great infrastructure.  For more information visit the website at www.awf.com or, if interested in becoming a raw material supplier, contact Mark Faehner at (800) 624-9663.
