Boise Cascade Holdings, LLC, which uses the trade name Boise, is an American pulp and paper company, ranked as the thirteenth biggest pulp and paper company in the world. It was established in 1957 as the result of the merger between Boise Payette Lumber Company and Cascade Lumber Company.

Boise Cascade is headquartered in downtown Boise, Idaho.

In November 2004, Boise Cascade Corporation, the predecessor to Boise Cascade Holdings, completed its sale of its paper, building products, and timberland assets to Madison Dearborn Partners, a private equity investment firm. It then renamed itself OfficeMax, which it had acquired in 2003.

Madison Dearborn Partners then reorganized its newly acquired assets into Boise Cascade Holdings LLC, a limited liability company.

The company is not related to the Canadian paper company Cascades.
