Why Kiln-Dried Wood?
Some of the advantages of our kiln-dried Douglas fir and Hemlock studs include:
- Increased usability - kiln drying mitigates the variables of shrinking and swelling
- Reduced shipping costs - dry wood weighs less
- Higher strength - most strength properties increase below 30% moisture content
- Easier finishing - paints and finishes adhere better to seasoned wood
- Better heat insulation - dry wood is a more effective heat insulator than wet wood

Rosboro Studs
Making Builders Jobs Easier
Rosboro's line of stud products are highly regarded for being quality products, easy to use, cost effective, and energy efficient. These are just a few reasons why they continue to be a product of choice among today's builders, who appreciate the fact that Rosboro studs meet their demands for quality building materials.
Rosboro addresses our customers' individual requirements by manufacturing a range of both green and kiln-dried stud products, and offering just-in-time shipping by truck, rail or van.
Kiln Dried - Ensuring the Best
Rosboro's modernized kilns ensure that our kiln-dried studs are strong and straight. This means our customers don't have to worry about warped and twisted wood that wastes valuable time and money. Our kilns are heated using waste wood, not gas or oil, and the water that is collected is recycled rather than returned to fish bearing waterways.
Rosboro Plus - A Class of its Own
Rosboro Plus is an appearance-grade, premium-quality stud. Because we adhere to tight grade specifications, defective characteristics like wane, split, skip, stain, and warp is strictly limited. This superior, uniformly dried product, which is cut to length and end sealed, gives our customer the assurance of consistent performance.
