Truck Body Scuff Boards

Your fleet’s scuff boards need to be able to withstand the abuse from the loading and unloading of cargo, and our lumber is up to the task. We select the best Apitong/Keruing, Gerutu, and Oak because they have a proven track record of strength and durability for this application. We offer excellent trailer flooring products, and we’re confident our ingenuity, large stock, and custom milling capabilities will surpass your expectations.

We stock all the staples in trailer flooring.

We know the ins and outs of dry freight transportation, and we have it all. We offer standard ¾” x 5-¼” boards with one chamfer cut edge, and random lengths from 6’-15’, or finger jointed from 16’, 24’ or 26’. You can harness our expertise and large stock to save your time and money.

Our products have a personal touch.

We don’t leave anything up to chance. That’s why our executives and team members personally travel to Southeast Asia periodically to visit mills, inspect harvesting practices, and establish relationships. In fact, our purchasing procedures include Chain of Custody documentation with every shipment.

We ship anywhere in the United States.

From Southeast Asia to your company’s doorstep, we handle all of the logistics in between. Our Apitong / Keruing is unloaded and inspected by our team as soon as it arrives in the Port of Mobile, then transported directly to our Stockton manufacturing facility to avoid excessive damage.

You design it. We machine it.

You can rely on us to make any pattern or profile you require. Our 300,000 sq. ft. manufacturing facility allows us to custom mill any species from 4’ to 55’ long and almost any thickness and width. From ripping to drilling to finger-jointing, we have your project covered.
