Shuqualak Mill
Huber Engineered Woods
a J.M. Huber Corporation Company
Supporting industry and bringing jobs while caring for our environment.
Huber Engineered Woods’ (HEW) most efficient and sustainable oriented strand board facility is being planned for Shuqualak, Mississippi. This new mill will be the sixth in HEW’s national footprint and its first in Mississippi.
The Shuqualak Mill will be located on more than 550 acres and will bring more than 150 direct jobs to the area with exponential business for adjacent industries, including logging and trucking.
HEW’s new Shuqualak Mill will produce millions of square feet of engineered wood panel products to support the nation’s need for structural building materials and meet the demands of our nationwide network of building materials distributors and lumberyards. Located adjacent to an existing railroad that will allow access to an environmentally friendly product shipment and material delivery, the new mill will also feature advanced technology that will help HEW further reduce its environmental impact.
Part of one of the largest and longest-running family-owned companies in the United States, HEW is a respected producer of high-performance, quality products, including ZIP System™ building enclosures and AdvanTech® subflooring, which have revolutionized the construction industry.
Huber Engineered Woods’ manufacturing is focused on reducing energy consumption, sustaining forests and providing a positive net carbon impact.

Sustainably Harvested Southern Yellow Pine
Our operations exist alongside and help maintain healthy and sustainable forests with proximity to fast-growing trees.

Bark and trimmings are recycled into fuel, reducing plant air emissions related to heating and drying processes. The majority of HEW plants are zero waste to landfill operations.
-
Water- and Energy-Saving Technology
Recirculated gas, advanced waterless components, waste reuse, LED lighting and responsive, energy-conserving electrical equipment are a few of the environmentally forward implementations that make HEW’s newest operational designs some of the most sustainable in the country.
-
Stored Carbon in Finished Products
HEW’s engineered wood panel products store, for their lifetime, carbon that has been sequestered from the atmosphere by trees.
-
Net Positive Carbon Impact
Ultimately, net emissions from HEW’s plant operations provide a net carbon reduction to the environment annually.
