Services
Concrete-Forming Plywood
Our BBOES Plyform concrete-forming plywood features B-grade face veneers and cross-banded C-grade inner layers for maximum stiffness. Pre-oiled surfaces prevent moisture absorption during curing, while flat finishes ensure easy detachment from dried concrete structures.
Crane Mats
We supply heavy-duty crane mats engineered for stability in construction sites. These pressure-distributed mats prevent equipment sinking in soft ground conditions while meeting OSHA safety standards for industrial applications.
Treated Lumber
Our treated materials include AC plywood and dimensional lumber with chemical preservation for outdoor durability. These products resist rot, insect damage, and moisture exposure in structural applications.
OSHA Scaffold Planks
We provide OSHA-compliant scaffold planks meeting strict safety specifications for construction projects. These load-rated planks ensure worker safety on elevated work platforms across commercial sites.
Engineered Wood
Our engineered wood products combine strength and versatility for modern construction needs. This category includes I-joists, laminated beams, and structural panels for residential and commercial building frameworks.
