EACOM Timber Corporation has left behind the world of respiratory disease research for a foray into the wild world of lumber and forestry. In 2007 the company halted its development activities and later sold its assets to a private Swedish drug company called Biolipox.

An acquisition of eight sawmills in 2010 boosted EACOM to become one of the largest softwood producers in Eastern Canada.
