CASCADE WOOD PRODUCTS

A two-alarm fire at the Cascade Wood Products manufacturing facility in Oregon caused significant property damage. BELFOR cleaned the 53,000-square-foot structure including production machinery, equipment and tools.

Cascade Wood Products is a full line domestic millwork manufacturer that has set the standard for excellence and integrity since 1953. From door frames to mouldings, all Cascade Wood products are manufactured by experienced craftsman in their own U.S. factories.

Next to the Cascade Wood Product manufacturing facility in White City is a wood debris-fired power plant that burns an estimated 335,000 tons of wood and landscape debris annually. Shortly after noon, a massive pile of sawdust at the power plant spontaneously combusted and started a two-alarm fire. Burning embers from the fire landed on Cascade Wood’s roof, catching the reinforced polycarbonate “windows” and insulation of the mill on fire.
