Known for its smooth, consistent grain and clean appearance, Superior Alder offers a refined, contemporary look while still showcasing the natural beauty of real hardwood.

Construction & Quality
Each trim board is manufactured in Olathe, Kansas using premium Superior Alder and precision milling equipment to ensure consistent dimensions and dependable quality.
All boards are surfaced on all four sides (S4S) and fully sanded for a smooth, ready-to-finish appearance. The clean square edges make these boards ideal for both traditional and modern trim applications while highlighting the refined grain and natural elegance of Superior Alder.

Available Unfinished or Finished
