SmartLam makes wood construction products at two locations — Dothan and Columbia Falls, Montana. The company just invested $60 million in a new manufacturing facility in Dothan adjacent to the existing cross-laminated timber, or CLT, plant. The new facility spans 144,000 square feet and is designed to produce 84 million board feet of glulam beams and columns each year. …A total of 113 people work in manufacturing and another 10 in management. The Montana division employs roughly 100. SmartLam is the largest mass timber producer in North America. The company started in Montana in 2012. In 2019, they acquired IB X-Lam in Dothan, a CLT and glulam plant that had been operating since 2018. …The Dothan location works with mostly yellow pine but can process spruce and Douglas fir, too. The Montana operation gets about half of its wood from Montana and the remainder from Oregon, Washington and Canada.
