Wausau
Supply has experienced several price increases this month in Engineered
Wood Products. These products include I-joists, LVL, and glulams. In
addition, the railroad has announced an increase in their base rates
beginning February of this year.
The reasons for
the increases are log prices, veneer costs, glue prices, and OSB web
stock that has risen over 20% the last 4 months.
Effective February 25th, 2013, Wausau Supply EWP
products will implement a variable percentage increase. All orders
placed on or after February 25th, 2013 will be set at the new
prices. (This would also include all Show Book price pages.) Price
pages will be available in the coming weeks. For now, the approximate
percentages of increase are as follows:
I-joists:
8% - 12%
LVL: 6% - 8%
Glulams: 6% - 18%
Split Trt: 12% - 14%
Thank you,
