Who are we?
Ayat Timbers International is a family-owned sawmill in Penobsquis, New Brunswick. It was founded in 2017 by a husband-and-wife team and named after their eldest daughter, Ayat. When you call or text, you talk directly to the owners.
Homeowners, contractors and retailers across Atlantic Canada buy direct from our mill, and we export kiln-dried, heat-treated lumber to buyers in India and Pakistan.
From log to board
Every board we sell is made here, start to finish:
- 1Logs: bought from private woodlot owners in New Brunswick’s Acadian Forest.
- 2Sawing: cut at our mill in Penobsquis.
- 3Kiln drying: for stable boards that resist warping and shrinking.
- 4Grading: checked by Javed, a Maritime Lumber Bureau certified lumber grader.
- 5Moulding: into siding, panelling, flooring and beams.
Certified & Trusted
Our facility is registered with the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) under the Canadian Heat-Treated Wood Products Certification Program (HT Program), so we can issue phytosanitary certificates for export. We are members of the Maritime Lumber Bureau, the Sussex Chamber of Commerce and the Multicultural Association-Sussex, NB, and are listed with the Canadian Home Builders’ Association of New Brunswick.
