Welco Lumber


This is an interesting supplier who was off my radar until recently - Welco Lumber

A list of their product lines...

Wood Preservatives: we offer wood preservative treatments of CCA, ACQ, Creosote, ACZA, and Penta.

Re-manufacturing: we offer a complete service of custom dressing, ripping, chopping, trim sawing, custom dapping, and custom drilling.

Custom Cut: we can offer all sizes up to 50 ft. of custom cut timbers in all species. Our timbers are used in many projects such as hotels, temples, aquariums, libraries, damns, canals, tunnels and wharves.

Bridges: we supply timbers to contractors servicing the forestry, oil & gas industry as well as pipeline contractors and government agencies.

Railway: we supply rail companies, treaters and contractors with crossing planks, cross ties and railway bridge timbers.

Marine: we supply timbers and piling for use in coastal marine applications both treated and not treated.

Log Home: we supply throughout North America; waney cants, slabbed logs, house logs, and appearance grade timbers, as well as D. logs in 6 x 8 and 8 x 8. All of our log home timbers are produced to meet or exceed Wall Log 40 Grade and are available in lengths up to 50 feet.

Our mills in Northern British Columbia log heavily in the winter months. The extreme cold climate slows growth, improves wood quality, and yields wood with a low and uniform moisture content. We use dense, high quality pine and spruce which is resistant to checking and we also air dry our cants to a moisture content of maximum 23%.

Oil & Gas: we supply pipeline skids, bridge timbers and pipeline chauls as well as crane mats in both hardwoods and softwoods for crane matts, please see our link to www.tundramatt.com

Sawmills: our exclusive mills are located in northern British Columbia and Southern Alberta producing in excess of 50 million board feet annually.
