About Allweather Wood

Allweather Wood operates six wood preservative treating plants with co-located distribution capabilities. Plants are located in California, Colorado, Oregon, Utah, and Washington. Allweather Wood also operates two dedicated distribution centers in California. Each of our locations manufactures preservative treated lumber and plywood products to best support the market needs in the geographic areas we serve. Allweather Wood ranks as the largest waterborne preservative treated lumber manufacturer in the Western U.S.

Our inventory features products for building decks, fences, and landscaping projects. In addition, we offer products for industrial and agricultural applications including docks, bridges, pole barns, sill plate, framing, fire retardant treated, and much more. And, we continue to grow our product offerings in response to the ever-changing needs of our customers. Each of our locations stocks specific wood species that best support the market needs in those geographic areas. Some of these wood species include Douglas-fir, Hem fir, Southern Yellow Pine, Lodgepole Pine, and Ponderosa Pine.

Allweather Wood preservative treated and fire retardant treated products are sold to wholesale and distribution accounts, as well as to retail lumberyards and home improvement retailers throughout the Western U.S.

our story

Our Operations

Our commitment to keeping ahead of the competition means investing in equipment that ensures a quality product for our customers. Our facilities operate year-round ensuring a steady supply of high-quality inventory. Each of our facilities features:

  • High-speed incisors
  • Custom pre-staining capabilities
  • Computer controlled treating cylinders
  • Distribution capabilities
  • Third-party quality control inspection in accordance with American Wood Protection Association (AWPA) industry standards.

Investment in state-of-the-art technology means Allweather Wood is an industry leader in highly efficient production practices. Furthermore, by extending the useful life of wood products through wood preservation, we conserve forestlands for future generations. Wood is a renewable resource from well-managed forests. Wood also requires less energy to produce than some other building materials, as it is made from natural sunlight, rain, and soil nutrients, rather than non-renewable petroleum-based sources.
