Welcome to Indiana Forest Products Community. Wood Products Industry is Indiana’s number one agricultural cluster in terms of value added ($9 billion) and in terms of growth potential. Wood products businesses employ roughly 50,000 Hoosiers and provide an average wage of $31,000 per year. In aggregate, the wood cluster stands as one of the top two segments of Indiana’s agricultural economy. Over the last ten years, Indiana’s wood products cluster has a stronger growth picture than any other cluster in the agricultural economy. Both jobs and wages have continued to increase.

The mission of Indiana Forest Products Community is to bring the entire forest products industry partners in the state of Indiana in the form of a community, which would make the businesses more efficient and cost-effective to produce high quality products at a lower price to position itself stronger in the competitive market place.
