Appalachian Lumber Joins NWFA/NOFMA Wood Flooring Program

NWFA certified
December 22, 2020

Appalachian Lumber Co. is the latest company to earn NWFA/NOFMA Mill Certification from the National Wood Flooring Association.

NWFA/NOFMA certification assures a manufacturer’s wood flooring meets or exceeds industry standards for grade, configuration, moisture content, and average board length. Certified mills must meet rigorous production standards and are inspected a minimum of two times per year to ensure consistent grade standards are maintained.

“NWFA is pleased to welcome Appalachian Lumber Co. as the newest NWFA/NOFMA member,” says Michael Martin, NWFA president & CEO. “Wood flooring is a big-ticket item for which the buyer wants assurance. The NWFA/NOFMA program continues to go a long way in providing that assurance.”

“Appalachian Lumber Co., a family-owned custom wood products manufacturer in western North Carolina, strives to produce the highest quality hardwood floors for the most discriminate buyer,” said William Church, president of Appalachian Lumber Co. “The decision to join the NWFA/NOFMA certified mill program is another tool to ensure our customers that our products will meet or exceed their expectations.”

A full list of NWFA/NOFMA certified manufacturers can be found on the NWFA website at http://nwfa.org/nofmamanufacturers.aspx.

The National Wood Flooring Association is a not-for-profit trade organization, with more than 3,200 member companies worldwide, dedicated to educating consumers, architects, designers, specifiers and builders in the uses and benefits of wood flooring. NWFA members receive educational training, benefits, technical resources, and networking to advance their professionalism and success.
