Erin, TN—Brandon Clark, owner of Clark Hardwoods, LLC, located here, recently installed a new 50,000-board-foot DH kiln by Nyle Systems, located in Brewer, ME. The dehumidifier was completely refurbished, bringing the total drying capacity to 125,000 board feet.

Moreover, at Clark Lumber Co. in Red Boiling Springs, TN, the company increased their covered air-drying capacity to 3 million board feet.

The addition of the new DH kiln brings the total kiln capacity of the two facilities to 900,000 board feet.

The company has six sawmills providing approximately 50 million board feet of Appalachian Hardwoods in 4/4 to 8/4 thicknesses. The species manufactured are Red and White Oak, Poplar, Ash, Hard Maple, Walnut, Cherry and Hickory. The companies both operate a planer and supply both green and kiln-dried lumber, cants plus cross ties, serving both the domestic and export markets.
