— What we supply
From pallet manufacturing and industrial timbers through to hardwood, hardware and marine supplies — everything Thayer makes, stocks and sources, in one place.
Blocking, bracing and dunnage cut to the sizes your shipping process actually uses.
Dunnage is the wood that does the quiet work — separating, supporting and bracing a load so it arrives the way it left. We cut it to your specification rather than making you buy a stock size and trim it down on the dock.
Because we mill and cut in house, dunnage can be produced alongside the pallets, crates and timbers on the same order, and heat treated and certified for export when the shipment is crossing a border.
Hardwood and softwood pallets, custom crating, and survey stakes made to your specification.
We are a major manufacturer of pallets in the Sault Ste. Marie area, producing hardwood and softwood pallets in a range of configurations for industrial and commercial customers across the north.
Hardwood and softwood pallets in a range of configurations, manufactured for industrial and commercial customers across northern Ontario.

Precision-cut, machined and manufactured wood products, produced in the volumes a production schedule requires.
Manufacturing packaging products is critical to the ongoing strength of Canada's supply chain.
