Hardwood Industries

What Hardwood Industries does

Hardwood Industries Inc. is a privately held, Pacific Northwest-focused wholesaler and distributor of hardwood lumber, softwood lumber, sheet stock, mouldings, hardwood flooring, decking, and related wood products. Founded in 1981 and headquartered in Sherwood, Oregon, the company operates seven stocking locations across Oregon and Washington, including 2024 additions in Eugene and Clackamas, supported by a proprietary truck fleet that enables next-day delivery within the region. Its customer base spans woodworking professionals (cabinet makers, furniture manufacturers, millwork shops), flooring contractors, and deck builders — a horizontal SMB and mid-market mix served via company-owned showrooms, will-call warehouses, a credit-application sales process, and quote-based pricing.

The company's core differentiator is the proprietary H.I. Brand grading system, which extends beyond standard NHLA grades and is supported by an industry-leading Tally Guarantee crediting shortages plus $100 if tally shortfall exceeds 1% on H.I. Brand lumber. Hardwood Industries is the only NHLA Grade Certified company on the West Coast, and its president currently serves as NHLA president — the first from the West Coast. The product portfolio has expanded beyond commodity hardwood into engineered flooring (Legend Series, Rainy River Wide Plank), specialty panels (REHAU Surfaces, Mirlux, KML Edgewood, Specialty Laminates TFL), and modified wood (Accoya), with proprietary grading now extended to softwoods.

Revenue is generated through one-time sales transactions across a multi-category product portfolio, distributed via direct showroom traffic, will-call pickup, and owned-fleet delivery, with credit accounts for commercial buyers. No external funding, M&A, parent company, or subsidiary structure is identified; the company is independently owned and operated. No revenue figures are publicly disclosed.
