The Best-Grown Wood
A Cross-Section of America’s Best
All of Carlisle’s wood comes from trees that were grown in ideal environments — where soil and climate allowed each individual species to flourish and produce superior wood.”
Most American hardwood trees are highly adaptive. You’ll find them in one form or another all the way from Canada to Florida and Texas. But it is primarily in New England, the upper Midwest, the Ohio River Valley and portions of the Appalachians where cool, short summers allow these trees to slowly grow to their maximum heights and circumferences. This translates into tighter, denser grains and optimum beauty for woodworking, cabinetry and especially wide plank flooring.
Like the trees themselves, the relationships we’ve developed with local foresters and sawyers are a result of slow growth. It has taken us time to get to know the right people, those who share our environmental vision and goals of producing the best hardwood boards possible from forests grown and managed in a totally sustainable manner. These much-cherished relationships mean that no matter which Carlisle hardwood you choose, it will be the choicest and most beautiful that America can grow.
