CHH sells its Myrtleford plywood mill to Porta Products

Friday 7 Nov 2025

 
Myrtleford’s plywood mill has new owners.  Porta Products Pty Ltd, which is part of the Borg Group, officially acquired the New Zealand owned Carter Holt Harvey Plywood Pty Ltd (CHH Plywood) last Friday. The Borg Group is a privately-owned, vertically integrated and diversified business spanning manufacturing, forestry, and property development.

A Borg spokesperson told the Myrtleford Times/Alpine Observer that the company was excited by the acquisition of the mill and its existing workforce, which manufacture a leading Australian plywood product range, currently sold under the Ecoply brand, including structural and non-structural grades, flooring, and formwork.

The spokesperson said the purchase “further supports Porta’s continued growth and diversification within the Australian timber and panels industry”. It is understood all existing staff have been maintained with the change of ownership, and the mill’s capacity to grow and optimise production will be among considerations moving forward.
