Knotty Pine Paneling
Our knotty pine paneling combines rustic charm with modern durability. Each 1x6 panel features end-matching technology for seamless installation and reduced waste. Kiln-dried to 6-8% moisture content, our UV-finished panels resist yellowing while maintaining natural wood aesthetics. Ideal for ceilings, accent walls, and cabin interiors across diverse climate zones.
Cedar Paneling
Western Red Cedar paneling offers natural beauty and weather resistance. Available in 1x6 and 1x8 dimensions with precision tongue-and-groove joints. Our UV-cured finish enhances scratch resistance while preserving cedar's distinctive grain patterns. Perfect for both interior applications and exterior soffit installations requiring dimensional stability.
Hardwood Flooring
We manufacture premium hardwood flooring in multiple species including oak, maple, and hickory. Available widths range from 2 to 5 inches with moisture content controlled to industry standards. Our precision milling ensures consistent plank dimensions for professional installations in residential and commercial spaces.
Custom Lumber Drying
Our controlled environment drying process achieves optimal moisture content for specific applications. Capable of handling both small and large volume orders, we maintain strict quality control throughout the drying cycle. This service enhances dimensional stability and prevents warping in finished wood products.
