About Us

Delivering premium North American timber to the world, rooted in a legacy of quality, sustainability, and trust.

From Forest to Foundation, We Build Global Partnerships on Trust.

Incorporated in 1991, Canasia is one of British Columbia’s leading forest products companies. Our success is based on the excellence of our people, the strength of our transportation infrastructure, and the quality of the products we distribute globally.

Bold and innovative, we continue to break new ground in product development and forge beneficial business alliances. Our commitment to industry standards is demonstrated by active memberships in the BCWLA, NAWLA, BSDA, and other key associations.

Operating from Western Canada, we offer outstanding softwood products from species like Spruce-Pine-Fir (SPF), Douglas Fir, and Western Red Cedar. We provide graded products, dimensional lumber, and custom orders, supported by our own mills and over a century of combined market expertise.

As a responsible corporate citizen, we balance our growth with prudent stewardship of the environment, creating opportunities for today and for generations to come. Our reputation for excellence extends throughout North America, the Pacific Rim, the Arabian Gulf, and South Asia.
