Lights Come On At Tolko High Prairie by Jessica Johnson, Associate Editor, Panel World

Ten years after shutting it down, Tolko Industries has refurbished and restored its OSB plant in High Prairie, Alberta. The mill was shuttered in early 2008 to protect the health of the company as the Great Recession settled in. High Prairie was Tolko’s first OSB mill built from the ground up in 1994. In late June of 2018, Tolko approved the restart and a number of capital projects in order to modernize the idled facility.
