VANCOUVER, British Columbia -- International Forest Products Limited (Interfor) will ask shareholders at its May 6 Annual General Meeting (AGM) to vote on a proposal to change the company name to Interfor Corporation from International Forest Products Limited.

"The change will provide a direct link to our traditional trade name and build on the successful rebranding efforts undertaken in recent years using the Interfor name and logo,' President & CEO Duncan Davies said. 'The new name will also be consistent with the formal names of our US subsidiaries which now account for more than 50 per cent of our production."

The name "Interfor" has been trademarked for exclusive use of the Company in the world's major lumber markets.
