About the company
American Wood Fibers Inc. Circleville Division, a woman-owned small disadvantaged business manufacturer based in Columbia, Maryland, receives federal grant funding as a recipient under Department of Agriculture programs to design, construct, and operate wood processing and biofuel production systems at its Circleville-division facilities. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime grant recipient; it does not hold federal contracts as a prime contractor or subcontractor and does not sit on any federal contracting vehicles.
The vendor's entire federal footprint consists of 22 grant awards, all from the Department of Agriculture, spanning wood utilization, biofuel production, and rural energy programs. The Department of Agriculture Rural Housing Service (through Rural Business Cooperative Services) issued 14 awards for advanced biofuel production grants; the Department of Agriculture Forest Service Pacific Southwest Region issued three awards for wood shavings plant expansion and wood pellet system development; and the Department of Agriculture Forest Service Southern Region issued two awards under the Community Wood Energy and Wood Innovation Program and Wood Utilization Assistance program. A single award from the Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service Midwest Area accounted for $35 thousand in combined potential value. Grant work centers on capital equipment installation and infrastructure improvements: a $600 thousand Wood Utilization Assistance grant (CFDA 10.674) awarded September 8, 2025, funds design, planning, and construction of a wood pellet production system at the Circleville, California facility through June 30, 2027; a $1 million Community Wood Energy and Wood Innovation Program grant (CFDA 10.708) awarded August 30, 2022, supported an integrated wood by-products value-added system using wood flour at the Circleville, Georgia facility; and a $520 thousand Wood Utilization Assistance grant awarded August 17, 2022, funded shavings plant expansion with new technology at the Jamestown, California facility. Earlier awards funded renewable energy system development at a Kentucky location under the Rural Energy for America Program (REAP). Combined obligated dollars across all awards total $4.7 million against a stated combined potential value of $35 thousand, reflecting the obligated-versus-potential reporting convention in federal grant data. Recent activity shows one award per year from 2023 through 2026, with one award completing within the next twenty-four months.
