Engineering a better frame for less is the core of what we do.
Industrial Timber has been helping companies who demand excellence to produce high quality products at industry leading price points since 1999. Founded in forestry, Industrial Timber has grown from a raw material supplier to become the nation’s largest independent furniture frame manufacturer and supplier of custom wood-based solutions. Building a better product for less is the core of what we do. Partnering with a wide variety of industries, from industrial packaging, to furniture frames and beyond we produce eco-friendly solutions that help our customers to increase margin, decrease assembly time, and reduce inventory levels to free up capital that can be used to grow other areas of their business.

Our ValueDriving costs down—and quality up.
Not only can we contribute to your bottom line through cost savings, we can also improve quality, adding to your brand’s value. Here’s how we do it:
MATERIALS SOURCING
With our scale and global relationships, IT procures high quality dimensional lumber and engineered wood at an industry-leading price point.
MATERIALS LOGISTICS
Our proprietary just-in-time Buggy System provides a simple “erector-set” model ensuring all core frame components are in a predetermined space. This ensures mission-critical components are right at your team’s fingertips exactly when they need them without the hassle of a forklift.
MATERIALS OPTIMIZATION
With smarter process and technology, we can achieve an overall materials yield of 78% versus the industry average of just 50% to 60%.
RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT
Our R&D team has helped get our plywood and OSB panel yield to an astounding 98+% by using special software to optimize digital “nests” before CNC routing.
EFFICIENT ASSEMBLY
Our in-house team of expert engineers develops highly efficient “nests” to ensure your parts are cut accurately and produce little to no waste. These parts are packaged specifically for each customer to ensure they best fit into the current work stream of your operation.
