Northern British Columbia

Sawmill Lumber Serving Northern BC

Seaton Forest Products is a cant sawmill in northern British Columbia, on Highway 16 west of Smithers. We mill dry balsam into cants, boards, and chips, and supply timber to customers across the north.

Timber for northern BC

We mill dry balsam: the logs left burnt or behind in the bush that larger mills will not take. Every log leaves the yard as squared cants for finished lumber or as chips bound for a local pellet plant, so nothing is wasted.

Working in the north means working with what the north gives you. We take dry balsam, square it into cants, and move it to market, while local customers can buy direct from the yard.

What we supply in the north

  • Dry balsam cants in seven cross-sections from 4x4 to 12x12.
  • Custom timber for larger or unusual orders.
  • Two-inch rough-cut boards and wood chips.
