  • About Conestoga Wood Specialties
    Table of Contents Table About Conestoga Wood Specialties Since 1964 Conestoga Wood Specialties has manufactured the highest quality cabinet doors and components for the Kitchen & Bath Industry. From our modest beginnings in a small garage in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, we’ve grown to be the industry leader known for our consistent quality, breadth of selection and product performance. While our roots run deep in producing finely crafted wood components, we’ve never stopped looking for “what’s next”, relentlessly searching for new designs, materials, accessories and services to assist our customers in keeping up with developing design trends. While predominantly known for our work with wood, Conestoga repeatedly steps outside our historic comfort zone to capitalize on developments in technologies and materials. We’ve routinely traveled to Europe to establish supplier relationships and explore revolutionary new materials such as Decorative Laminate Veneers and high textured Thermally Fused Laminates. We work with some of the world leaders in alternative sheet stock and make huge investments in inventories to help bring these products to our customers. Our latest Alternative Material investments included multiple High Gloss materials and Super Matte films…and our search continues. Our commitment is not only to provide our customers with superior products, but to also monitor the market making every attempt to understand where it is heading; then doing our best to provide the products needed to allow customers to capitalize. Several years ago we anticipated the rise of painted finishes and aggressively promoted hybrid doors and introduced 5-Piece MDF doors well before they became widely accepted by the industry.
