Potential customers often ask us "What type of wood does your company use?"
Our answer is simple... We have been manufacturing shutters using AMERICAN BASSWOOD since our inception in 1991. Some companies use Pine and Poplar while others use Plastic and Poly. We have always used 100% Kiln-Dried Basswood for our shutters. Using any material in place of Basswood is a shortcut...something we are not interested in doing!
