84 Lumber is continuing to expand its component manufacturing plants after acquiring a new facility in Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania, just northeast of Harrisburg.

The company’s newest truss plant is a 29,016-square-foot building which sits on 8.8 acres. 84 Lumber acquired the facility, formerly Tri-County Truss, in the Lightstreet business park. The truss plant, which will primarily construct roof trusses, was needed to keep up with demand and market growth in eastern and central Pennsylvania.

“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,” said Sean O’Connell, the general manager of the Bloomsburg truss plant. “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.”

Operations started on Jan. 09, 2025, with 15 associates currently working at the truss plant. The company plans to hire a total of 30 associates before the end of 2025, and 50-60 associates in 2026.

84 Lumber is the leading supplier of building materials, manufactured components, and industry leading services for single and multifamily residences and commercial buildings.
