Robinson Lumber Company, a proud member of the National Hardwood Lumber Association (NHLA) for a century, recently had the privilege of showcasing its flagship yard located in New Albany, IN, during the first-ever NHLA Convention offsite mill trip visit of its kind. The event was a resounding success, with over 120 esteemed guests transported in three buses to witness the latest innovations and expansion at the facility.
An exciting highlight of the showcase was Robinson Lumber Company’s recent acquisition of five acres of additional land across the street, effectively doubling the yard’s footprint. The expansion represents a significant commitment to meeting the growing needs of the industry. At the heart of the tour was the CombiLift CSS Slip Loader. This state-of-the-art equipment enables the loading of containers and flatbeds in a remarkable six minutes, setting a new industry standard for efficiency and safety.
As part of Robinson’s ongoing commitment to providing the highest quality products and services, Robinson Lumber is set to further enhance its operations. Plans are underway to introduce additional kiln capacity, which will significantly bolster the company’s production capabilities. Moreover, a new green stacker, all of which add to Robinson’s value-added, pulled-to-width and ripped strips, with a focus on premium woods like White Oak and Hickory.
