We look forward to building its geographic reach and further enhancing its exceptional customer service."
TJ Rosengarth, President and CEO of NWH, noted "Our customers have been extremely loyal over many decades and we very much appreciate that. We reward our customers' loyalty by providing innovative products and exceptional service at affordable prices."

Headquartered in Tacoma, WA, NWH was successfully carved-out of Weyerhaeuser by AIP in 2011. NWH serves the repair and remodel, residential construction, industrial, and export markets, with operations strategically located near high production hardwood timber baskets and key shipping ports. The Company converts hardwood logs into rough cut and kiln dried lumber, and then planes and sorts the lumber boards into an array of quality grades for appearance wood applications.
