84 Lumber Opens New Truss Plant in Bloomsburg, PA

84 Lumber, a supplier of building materials, manufactured components, and services for single and multifamily residences and commercial buildings, recently announced that it has expanded its component manufacturing after acquiring a new facility in Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania.

The company’s newest truss plant is a 29,016-square-foot building, formerly Tri-County Truss. The plant, which will primarily construct roof trusses, was needed to keep up with demand and market growth in eastern and central Pennsylvania.

Operations started on January 9, with 15 associates currently working. The company plans to hire a total of 30 associates before the end of 2025, and 50–60 associates in 2026.

Sean O’Connell, the general manager of the Bloomsburg truss plant, said:

“This new facility has state-of-the-art, advanced MiTek robotic technology that allows the trusses to be built not just faster and more accurately, but, more importantly, safer and efficiently for our associates. This truss plant, which is the third in the state of Pennsylvania, and the sixth in 84 Lumber’s Mid-Atlantic region, has a laser system that guides the wood, and automation on the tables.”
