New warehouse expansion is complete

Last month, M. Bohlke Corp. saw the completion of our new lumber warehouse.

Construction began September 2016. At 75,000 square feet, there is plenty of room to store our ever-growing imported hardwood inventory. It will also house a vacuum dry kiln, a 55-inch bandsaw, a resaw edger, and an 18-foot slab planer. Our extensive inventory of imported square edge bunks includes dozens of imported species, and our live edge slab inventory is pushing into the thousands of individual slabs. You can also browse a portion of our live edge slabs inventory, and learn more about our other lumber offerings here.

Our 50th Anniversary

2016 is a big year for us—we’re celebrating our 50th year in business!

Our company was founded in March 1966 by President Manfred Bohlke. Mr. Bohlke’s first glimpse into the North American wood veneer industry began in the early 1960’s. He had come to America to buy Walnut logs for his German mentor. It was here that he saw the vast possibilities of the American forests. We have come a long way these past five decades and expanded our offerings to include a 100,000 square feet lumber warehouse, a Vtec reconstituted wood line, bamboo veneer, custom faces, and reclaimed wood.

Thank you to our customers, vendors, employees, and our community for their partnerships and trust. None of this would have been possible without your support.

We have a lot of exciting things planned for the year and we invite you to join us in celebrating this monumental achievement!
