One of our customers, WestRock in Luke, MD, supplies reject wood from their woodyard operation to a Kingsford Plant located nearby.  I am surprised by this article to learn that Kingsford has 80% market share.  To accomplish and maintain that percentage of the market speaks highly for their consistency of product quality and supply chain network.
