Beyond Conservation...Restoration

Treadlight™ flooring, trim and picture frames are made by North Slope Sustainable Wood from small-diameter Western larch – also known as tamarack – trees from forest restoration sites in Montana and the Northern Rockies. We go beyond sustainably harvested with our “greener than green” approach by culling the stunted trees from overcrowded forests and allowing the largest and healthiest trees to thrive.
The tight growth rings, honey-and-cinnamon grain and dark pinhole knots of this “suppressed-growth” larch give Treadlight™ flooring, trim and picture frames its stunning appearance and durability. By using this beautiful, sustainably harvested flooring and other Treadlight™ wood products, you help restore America's forests to their original old-growth conditions and wildlife habitat.
