Based in Baltimore County, the company also runs a licensed wood-waste recycling operation, keeping about 100 million pounds of clean wood out of landfills each year by converting it into usable products. Its chemical-free Thermarich process and stake mill reflect a business that continues to find new uses for local wood.
