American Walnut Company manufactures a variety of North American hardwoods such as American black walnut, red oak, white oak, white ash, hackberry, pecan, sycamore, soft maple, hard maple, and a variety of other hardwoods that are found in our area of the United States. We carefully cut and mill all of our lumber on a 7' bandmill. The lumber is well edged and double end trimmed to a specific length. We transfer the walnut into specialized steam vats where it is steamed for a specific length of time to insure the proper steaming process. The lumber is then stacked on uniformed stacking sticks approximately every 10". Then the lumber is carefully loaded into cross circulation package dry kilns that have a capacity of more than 800,000 board feet. |
| After the careful process where the material is dried to a moisture content of 6%-8%, it is then equalized and conditioned and inspected by our certified lumber grader in accordance with the National Hardwood Lumber Association rules and guidelines. We then print a computerized piece tally that is attached to every unit. This piece tally contains the number of pieces, the width in inches, and the length in feet of every board in the unit. This package is then ready for shipment via flatbed, container, van, or railcar. |
