Our Commitment to You

At Walnut Creek Planing, genuine relationships and lasting commitment go hand in hand. We strive to do right by our clients by continually improving our service. That means advancing our systems, listening to your needs, and learning every day. We seek to steward our resources wisely and provide you with the components you’ve been looking for.

Doing Right by Our Customers and Resources

At Walnut Creek Planning, we’ve developed a vertically integrated process that prioritizes high-volume, quality components:

  • Stair Parts: We produce and stock a full line of stair parts to service high-volume stair parts distributors, stair builders, and lumber yards.
  • Tailored Components: Quality, custom hardwood components ideal for bulk production and specific requirements.
  • Committed Service: Our service team is by your side, year after year, to ensure you receive the details and attention you need.
  • Timely Production: By owning multiple steps of the supply chain, we are able to better control consistent lead times. We also stock a large number of Stair Parts.
  • Resource Stewardship: We don’t let our waste go to waste. We produce tons of Envirobricks from our shavings and sawdust per week, that is sold through distributors and direct to consumers, to be used for home heating and campfires.

The Golden Rule

Our philosophy is simple: we do things the right way, no matter what the cost. Our goal is to build lasting partnerships, not just complete transactions. When you choose Walnut Creek Planing, you’re choosing a team dedicated to precision, reliability, and integrity.

Vertical Integration

The power to ensure quality products, time after time

We've vertically integrated our hardwood process across our Walnut Creek, Sugarcreek, and Winesburg facilities to control all supply chain steps from the sawmill to the finished component. By managing every stage ourselves, we have increased customization capabilities, eliminated unnecessary delays created by third-party supply chain members, and prevented avoidable waste.

A supply chain solution

At Walnut Creek Planing, we oversee every step of the process for consistent quality and reliability. Here’s how we deliver precision-crafted hardwood components:

Vertical Integration

Sustainably Sourced Local Hardwood

We work with green lumber (also known as "wet lumber") harvested from the Eastern United States and processed at trusted local sawmills.

State-of-the-Art Kilns

Our kilns are used for grading, air-drying, and precision drying, which reduces defects, enhances stability, and improves long-term performance.

Precision, Quality Components

Once the wood is conditioned, it is shaped into long-lasting components at one of our two manufacturing facilities.

Innovative Manufacturing Capabilities

We perform machining on-site, which minimizes downtime and enables us to meet your needs quickly without compromising quality.

Responsible Waste Solutions

We make the most of our raw materials by converting wood waste into EnviroBricks.

Stewardship & Sustainability

Our commitment to responsible resource management

Taking care of our resources and fellow men is of the highest priority to Walnut Creek Planing. It’s important to us that we minimize waste and use as much of every single piece of wood as possible. By thoughtfully creating waste-reducing processes and using sustainable practices, we’re able to waste little-to-nothing.

Our Sustainability Efforts 

Vertical Integration

Because we manage our entire supply chain, we are able to control and minimize material waste at every step of production.
