Waska Cedar boards are sold mainly in the New England states and in eastern Canada, i.e. in Québec, New Brunswick and elsewhere in the Maritimes.

Of our total production, 95% of the boards are used in fence building and 5% in construction for interior finishing.

At Waska, quality and innovation comes first.

Waska has three by-products from its operations, making Waska an environmentally sound company. Our by-products are all natural and organic, and can be used safely.

Waska produces 2,400 metric tons of dry wood chips annually used in the pulp and paper industry.

Waska processes Cedar wood bark into mulch that is used in agriculture and landscaping and contains only organic matter. Processing wood products allows Waska to produce and sell a considerable volume of mulch each year.

As for sawdust, Waska supplies the cogeneration industry with 4,800 metric tons annually, which is used for generating energy.

As a forestry products processing company, Waska cares deeply about the environment and does as much as it possibly can for conservation. Waska is very proud of the fact that its by-products are all used in a practical way: pulp and paper, agriculture and energy generating, i.e. more than 16,000 metric tons of wood scrap used as fuel.

Waska makes laths from two species of wood: aspen and white Cedar.

Waska transforms annually 13,000 cords of wood into laths.

Out of its total production of laths, 40% goes for industrial purposes and the remaining 60% in construction.

Waska makes laths in many different sizes hence we are always trying to supply you with any size you might need.

Total annual production of aspen and cedar laths at Waska is 22.4 million units, sold in New England, in the mid-western states, in Ontario, in Quebec and in Atlantic Canada. But if you want it anywhere else, we'll ship it.

Operating in two shifts year-round, Waska produces some 70,000 squares of cedar shingles every year.

Waska white cedar shingles are sold in the United States, especially in the New England states, Mid-Western states and on the West Coast, as well as in Ontario, Quebec and in the Maritime provinces.

As for quality control, Waska is a member of the MLB (Maritime Lumber Bureau) and CSA (Canadian Standards Association). Both these associations provide independant quality control inspections.
