Kiln-Dried Lumber
We provide premium kiln-dried hardwood lumber sourced from Northern Appalachian forests. Our advanced drying process ensures optimal moisture content while maintaining structural integrity. Species include Red Oak, Poplar, Cherry, and Hard Maple with consistent texture, color, and grade for professional applications.
S4S Custom Moldings
Our S4S (Surfaced Four Sides) products undergo a multi-stage manufacturing process using Newman-Whitney planers and Weinig molders. We produce precision-milled boards in standard and custom dimensions for cabinet makers and millwork companies requiring exact specifications.
E-ZBricks
E-ZBricks are compressed hardwood fuel bricks made from kiln-dried shavings. These uniform 3-4 lb bricks offer consistent burn rates and storage convenience compared to traditional firewood. Available in retail packaging or bulk pallet quantities for residential/commercial heating.
