LUMBER PROCESSING CENTER

RESOURCES

Introducing Aetna’s new Lumber Processing Center, now in full production at Aetna’s Maywood facility. By investing in these state-of-the-art resources, Aetna can save customers precious time, greatly reduce the cost of wasted material, and add considerable value to the surfacing and straight lining of the lumber material that’s vitally important to so many building projects. 

The new Center is designed to maximize throughput, while at the same time greatly minimizing material waste. Capabilities include:

Surfacing: Hit & miss, or surfaced for a smooth, uniform face and back to reveal the grain and prepare the wood so it’s ready to work.
Edging: To produce a straight edge on one side, on hardwood lumber as thick as 3”.
Custom millwork: We can match one of your profiles or manufacture new knives to meet your needs. Finger-jointed poplar available!

This center now allows us to offer next day delivery, based on minimum orders of 50 board-feet for product in-stock, or 100 board-feet per line item. Get the hardwood lumber you need, when you need it, starting today!

Meet The Master Behind The Saw: Jim Horn

Jim Horn started working at his family’s Lumber Distribution company “Charles Horn Lumber” in 1995. Jim held many roles there, but was always involved in operations and more specifically, managing and operating machinery to mill rough lumber. 

Jim has almost 30 years of experience working with hardwood lumber and when you watch him work, it’s obvious. Jim now oversees the New Lumber Processing Center here at Aetna Building solutions and continues to use his years of expertise to produce an amazing product and deliver legendary service!
