Frank Faehner, Chairman of American Wood Fibers, has been involved with "total wood waste utilization" for over 50 years. In 1966, he incorporated Eastern Wood Fibers in Jessup, Maryland and set out to become the nation’s largest supplier of wood flour and wood by-products. In 1988, he achieved this objective and the name was changed to American Wood Fibers to more accurately reflect the depth of our resources and the national scope the company had achieved.Today, there are American Wood Fiber plants and distribution centers near the majority of our nation's major timber processors from coast-to-coast. We are also rapidly expanding to include Canada, Mexico and other international markets. Despite this significant growth and national scope, our focus still remains on family. American Wood Fibers embodies the culture of courtesy, respect and a commitment to customer service that originated with our company founder. Today that same commitment is sustained by the fourth generation of the Faehner family and all AWF employees.
