LUMBER
Although we specialize in tropical hardwood lumber, you can also get softwoods or temperate hardwoods, rough-cut or dressed, air-dried or kiln- dried, in the quantities, sizes and grade you need, when you need it.
You can have regular supplies of most species delivered to your door at competitive prices. All we need is a clear description of your needs and we will work hard to provide you with a cost effective solution.
All the lumber we supply comes from sustainable, legally harvested and certified by recognized organizations from sovereign countries or third parties like FSC, TFT or others. You are safe from the burdens of the Lacey Act because we make sure our lumber is environmentally sound.
A list of our main species follow, but keep in mind that many others are available upon request. Learn about their technical properties directly from the link to the U.S. Forest Products Lab provided in the Links & Resources page of our site. We can also help you select a new species for specific applications.
