The history of Boise Cascade is a story of determination, flexibility, and resilience.

From a legal perspective, our Company’s history begins in 2004 when Boise Cascade as we know it today was legally formed. While the legal origin of our current Company is important, our roots run much deeper, and the work, people, and legacy that shape our Company go back decades before 2004. The intersection between our legal origin and the full story creates a complex history to share with others. We are proud of our deep roots, and we believe our journey is an important part of what makes Boise Cascade who and what we are today.

Boise Cascade Corporation was formed in 1957 through the merger of Cascade Lumber Company of Yakima, WA, and Boise Payette Lumber Company of Boise, ID. The early days focused on growing and harvesting timber, and manufacturing and distributing lumber and building products.

Opportunity and boldness led to the exploration of other industries over the years, including paper, shipping containers, concrete, sand and gravel, real estate, and recreation, including ownership of a motor home manufacturer.

In the 1990s, Boise Cascade Corporation invested in engineered wood products (EWP) and building mills in Oregon and Louisiana for producing laminated veneer lumber (LVL). Furman Lumber of Billerica, MA, was purchased, which paved the way to a nationwide building materials wholesale distribution system.

The next decade continued to bring big changes. In 2003, Boise Cascade Corporation acquired OfficeMax and adopted OfficeMax as its own name. Shortly after that, in 2004, OfficeMax sold its non-office products businesses and the name “Boise Cascade” to a private equity firm, which started Boise Cascade Company as it exists today.

In 2008, the housing market collapsed, and the Great Recession ensued. The Company survived and began its slow recovery through strategic investments in EWP and building materials distribution.

By late 2012, the Company had successfully recovered and began preparing to launch an initial public offering (IPO). The IPO was completed on February 6, 2013, and the Company rang the bell at the New York Stock Exchange that day.
