Hoover Treated Wood Products, Inc.

🌳 Happy Arbor Day! Today, we’re celebrating the power of trees and the role they play in both the environment and sustainable building. Wood is one of the most renewable materials used in construction, and responsible forestry helps keep it that way. In fact, the American Forest & Paper Association reports that through active forest management processes, more than 1 billion trees are planted annually. Choosing wood products is a smart, sustainable choice for construction and beyond.

A lot has happened over the last 70 years, but one thing has always remained the same—building by the code. Building by the code is our way of demonstrating that every single one of our products upholds a standard that protects people where they live, work, learn and play when they need it most. Join us as we continue that same standard into the next 70+ years. . . . #FRTW #BuildbytheCode #Construction #Safety #Anniversary

One of the best sustainability choices you can make is in your building materials. Unlike concrete and steel, wood is naturally renewable and sequesters carbon from the atmosphere. And don’t worry about strength, it's just as durable too, especially when it's fire-retardant-treated wood (FRTW)! Learn more about the benefits of FRTW and how it can be a fit for your next project. https://cstu.io/b5a710 . . . #FRTW #Construction #BuildingMaterials #Building #Sustainability

Can you treat products other than lumber or plywood? Technically, you can treat any wood product! But the real value comes from treating the materials most commonly used in construction. In our latest TecTalk, learn more about construction-grade softwoods, lumber, plywood, and the specific wood species Hoover is equipped to treat. https://lnkd.in/eJ_DPA2D . . . #TecTalk #FRTW #BuildbytheCode #Construction #Safety

Recently, our Director of Fire & Life Safety Codes, Dr. Dave Bueche, attended the International Association of Fire Chiefs (IAFC) Wildland–Urban Interface (WUI) conference in Kansas City, discussing the role of code-compliant fire-retardant-treated wood (FRTW) in ignition-resistant construction. Missed him at the event? You can still explore these important topics in our free, downloadable resource, FireWise Construction: Site Design and Building Materials, coauthored by Dr. Bueche and published by the Colorado State Forest Service.

This April, we’re showcasing Hoover’s commitment to both safety and sustainability. From the materials we source, to delivering product and everything in between, sustainability is always top of mind. Now, we want to hear from YOU! 👇

At Hoover, we believe in serving each other—no matter the role. That’s why Amanda Green, Regional HR, stepped onto the operations floor, spending the day on the stacker machine. By experiencing the work firsthand, she’s better equipped to serve and support our teams. While this isn’t her usual workstation, she tackled the challenge like a pro! . . . #FRTW #culture #building #construction #teamwork

Building smarter and greener starts with the right materials. At Hoover, we’re committed to sustainable forestry, treating renewable wood products that store carbon and help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Our fire-retardant-treated wood doesn’t just meet the highest safety standards—it also helps you build responsibly. 🌱

Grateful for the people who make it happen! Recently, our leadership team had the pleasure of serving breakfast and lunch to our hardworking Oxford and Detroit teams as a small way to show our appreciation. Day in and day out, our employees go above and beyond to ensure our customers receive the highest quality, safest fire-retardant-treated wood products. Their dedication is at the heart of what we do. A huge thank you to every team member across the country who helps fulfill the mission of protecting people where they live, work, learn and play. We couldn’t do it without you! . . . #TeamAppreciation #Leadership #CompanyCulture #FRTW

Another busy month educating the industry on the benefits and use of fire-retardant-treated wood. Come say hello at the Arizona Building Officials Spring Institute, California Building Officials 63rd Annual Business Meeting or the CODE ADMINISTRATORS ASSOCIATION OF KENTUCKY INC 2025 Spring Forum. We can't wait to see you there! . . . #FRTW #Building #BuildingCodes #Construction
