Kuiken Brothers Receives Boise Cascade LVL Delivery By Rail Direct from Mill

Kuiken Brothers unloads a fully loaded railcar of 60' lengths of Boise Cascade VersaLam LVL (laminated veneer lumber) which was received direct from Boise Cascade's mill. This railcar was received at our new 10 acre facility in Newark, NJ which features a rail siding which can receive upwards of 20 rail cars at a time. This significantly reduced the number of tractor trailers that would typically have been used to ship this quantity of material to our locations in New Jersey & New York.
Five of Kuiken Brothers nine locations feature active rail sidings which provides us with direct access to West Coast lumber mills. We have contracted with the premier lumber mills in North America to ensure a consistent supply of “premium” lumber at our locations in New Jersey and New York. In fact, each year we receive over 500 rail cars of plywood, OSB, studs, pre-cuts and dimensional lumber and engineered lumber shipped directly to us from the mill. We are certain that this consistent and high quality lumber will be noticeable to both you and your customers.
Boise Cascade, owner and operater of the world’s two largest laminated veneer lumber (LVL) and I-joist manufacturing plants in Louisiana and Oregon is Kuiken Brothers engineered wood products partner of choice. Boise Cascade’s SIMPLE FRAMING SYSTEM uses highest-quality ALLJOIST (AJS) and BCI Joist products, VERSA-LAM laminated veneer lumber, VERSA-STUD laminated veneer framing lumber and other engineered wood products with matched depths that work together. The result is longer spans, time saved during cutting and fitting, less waste and lower overall cost since less product is needed
