Burning Wood Beautifully
The first to do so in the United States and on a large commercial scale, Delta Millworks began adding stunning textures and grain patterns to wood in 2007 through the use of fire. Delta Millworks is proud to hold the torch as the original purveyors of shou-sugi-ban in the United States. We take this honor seriously, and strive to continually refine our craft.
Project Spotlight
SOUTH HAVEN REMEMBRANCE CENTRE | ALBERTA, CANADA
The building’s overall character considers seasonally modulating light patterns inside, as well as the long, crisp winter shadows that are cast from the building’s edges outside. On the exterior, a combination of black hot-rolled steel panels and charred shou sugi ban Accoya cladding contrasts with winter snow and gives the building a striking presence throughout the year.

35 Years and Counting
Delta Millworks is a culmination of all of the lessons learned, techniques mastered, and clients serviced over our 35 years of history. You can see it in our technique, the quality of all of the wood we sell, and most of all, and in our opinion most importantly, in the way that we build relationships with our customers.
Since 1985, Delta has shipped material throughout the Unites States and to 14 countries across the globe with that number growing each year. We are honored to work with the top architects, designers and builders in the industry. We’ve come a long way in 35 years and don’t plan on slowing down anytime soon.
Product Spotlight
CHAR BEETLE | SMOKE
Delta’s line of interior cladding products utilizes dead-standing lodgepole pine trees from the Western U.S. and Canada. Beetle Kill Pine offers a rustic, blue-streaked cladding product in its raw, unfinished state. Once textured, burned and stained, the finish options become extensive and the natural “worm holes” in the wood only add to its distinctiveness. Char Beetle | Smoke lends a combination of a sleek black finish and a rustic, sustainable feel to any interior design project.
