For over 50 years, Catawissa Lumber & Specialty Co., Inc. has provided its customers with quality hardwood components and a commitment to service that has set the industry standard. Since 1957, we have grown from a three-employee shop nestled in Catawissa, Pennsylvania to over 100 employees operating from a modern 76,000 square feet facility located in the community of Elysburg, PA. We are capable of processing 8 million board feet of lumber into hundreds of thousands of wood components each year. And Catawissa is FSC certified, meeting with the highest social and environmental standards in the market.

Through the years, we have held true to family traditions of integrity, dedication to hard work, attention to detail, commitment to service, and assurance of quality that were instilled upon us since the beginning. Our customers are large and small; domestic and international. They come to Catawissa for our outstanding customer service and our region's famed Appalachian hardwoods.

When lumber arrives at our Paxinos Plant's yard facilities, our NHLA certified lumber procurement staff starts the process by personally selecting and grading our raw materials. The lumber is then carefully handled, stacked, seasoned, and stored to preserve its natural beauty. All our kiln dried lumber is monitored meticulously each step of the drying process resulting in stress-free lumber within a range of 5 to 7 percent moisture content.

Acquiring and seasoning our lumber is just the beginning. Catawissa's Paxinos Plant, with 76,000 square feet of manufacturing space, can service your hardwood needs. Whether it's kiln dried lumber, surfaced boards ripped-to-width, or semi-machined components, we are equipped and have the capacity to handle your orders both large and small on a just-in-time basis or through Catawissa's warehouse program.
