Barwick Mill Sold

Change is coming at the Barwick Mill.
Ainsworth is agreeing to sell all of its operations, including the Barwick mill, to U-S forestry giant Louisiana Pacific in a deal worth $1.1-billion.
Louisiana-Pacific Chief Executive Officer Curt Stevens says the acquisition provides more financial stability to weather market conditions.
Stevens says it will also gives L-P greater access to the Asian market where Ainsworth is well established.
The deal is to close by the end of the year.
