About

The Whiting family sawmill built in 1893 near Springville, Utah,
was the first of many Whiting family enterprises. In 1952, the
family built a modern sawmill at the base of the Kaibab
Plateau, north of the Grand Canyon. Because of the beauty
and rich heritage associated with the area, "Kaibab", an Indian
word meaning "The Mountain Lying Down," was chosen as a
fitting name for this new family venture. Today the Kaibab
name remains synonymous with resilience, heritage, and

sawmill, Kaibab has grown
into a successful Arizona
based corporation. Kaibab
Industries, Inc. is the
parent company to various
diversified companies and
divisions operating
autonomously.
