FRERES ENGINEERED WOOD

Being innovative is in our DNA. We began producing veneer in the 50s, and added plywood in the 90s to keep our momentum. In 2007 we built a cogeneration facility supplying renewable power to the local power grid. In 2017, we developed and now manufacture what could possibly be the most significant new mass timber product in the world: Mass Ply Panels, or MPP... Our companies include Freres Engineered Wood, Freres Timber, and Evergreen BioPower LLC. We are committed to not only providing jobs, but careers and wages that support families... Even the residuals from our cogeneration have beneficial uses. We produce biochar, which stores carbon in its cells and is returned to the soil, sequestering carbon instead of emitting it to the atmosphere.
