  • Certified Wood Species*
    M. Bohlke Corp. 8375 N. Gilmore Road Fairfield, OH P: (513) 874-4400 mbveneer.com [email protected] Wood is Green Preserving and enhancing our natural resources. We have a strong commitment to the preservation and protection of the forests that supply our raw materials. We comply with all forestry standards and regulations by working with timberland owners to responsibly harvest their trees in a selective manner. By purchasing our trees and logs from private landowners and government-owned properties that hire state-certified foresters to mark mature trees for harvest, we are preserving our forests by leaving the smaller trees for further growth and future generations. Through selective harvesting, America’s hardwood forests have been able to regenerate more trees than are harvested. Most trees we use today come from third- or fourth-cut hardwood stands, allowing the temperate hardwoods of North America to regenerate to full mature age within one human lifetime. Only mature trees at the end of their life cycle are viable for veneer manufacturing – young trees do not yield a fine veneer product. For every one hundred trees in the forest, only about seven of them are suitable for veneer quality. In a time when timber regulations are becoming much more stringent, we pride ourselves on carrying a solid inventory of certified veneer and lumber. Responsible utilization of timber mandates that we be productive in our manufacturing processes to produce high yields from our raw material. For years, M. Bohlke Corp. has invested, developed and patented the latest technology to produce the most out of logs.
