Québec's Hardwood Industry

Hardwood is the optimal material 
for floors, tools or furniture

Hardwood trees in North America are dense and strong. This durability and resistance allows them to overcome bad weather and large temperature variations.

Expect above and beyond NHLA grading standards

In addition to complying with NHLA standards for the different grades of their hardwood species, Québec manufacturers offer in-house grades. These custom grades are targeted for niche products and ambitious projects.

Our Association

The QWEB is the gateway to establishing contact with hardwood manufacturers in Québec. 

Our association brings together the biggest players in this sector while leaving out the wholesalers. 

Indeed, in order to be a member of QWEB, member companies must have a manufacturing capacity, which reduces costs by purchasing directly from the source.

70% of manufactured hardwood is exported overseas

90% of forests in Québec are protected to preserve their diverse environment

Most forests are FSC, PEFC or SFI certified

150 million hectares of certified forest which is more than the United States, Russia, Sweden and Finland combined
