Founded in Clearfield in 1987 with 13 employees, Appalachian Wood Products now manufactures custom wood cabinet components for kitchen, bath, and furniture makers in a 266,000-square-foot facility. Its production is built around inventory-based customers, while an in-house engineering team designs specialized equipment for unusual operations and product requirements. Privately held and known for supplying cabinet manufacturers across North America, the company has grown from an initial focus on cabinet framing into a broad component operation.
