Miguel Paulhus Berm-dez (Wood Products)

March 8, 2024 | Author: Matthew

Process Development & Quality Control Assistant; Gilbert Smith Forest Products Ltd.

Miguel at a career fair talking about working at a sawmill

My name is Miguel Paulhus and I am currently in Barriere doing my coop. I am working for Gilbert Smith Forest Products in Process Improvement and Quality Control. Currently I have been working on different trials to improve recovery and production time while learning from the different people at the sawmill how things work and what to look for when running tests.


I have also been learning a lot about how to operate the kiln and the drying process. I even got a chance to go to a career fair and talk about what it is like working at a sawmill!
