The company is a manufacturer of commodity and specialty building products that operates in three segments: oriented strand board, siding and engineered wood products. Its oriented strand board, or OSB, segment manufactures and distributes OSB structural panel products. Its siding products fall into two brand categories: SmartSide and Canexel.

The company's engineered wood products segment manufactures and distributes I-joists, laminated veneer lumber and other related products.
