Welcome to Nelma Forest

Plant with Nelma

The association promotes the use of wood products to a variety of audiences including, architects and designers.

“Having the tree kits at our trade event exhibits, extended our message that choosing wood products for design and construction is an excellent environmental and sustainable decision for the future.”

“We engaged many more people in our booth as a result of having the tree kits, they were a real draw.”

“The response from the expo attendees was fantastic.”

– Jeff Easterling, NELMA

The Northeastern Lumber Manufacturers Association (NELMA) is the rules writing agency for Eastern White Pine lumber and the grading authority for Eastern Spruce, Balsam Fir, Spruce-Pine-Fir (SPFs) grouping, and other commercially important eastern softwood lumber species.

NELMA’s technical program provides design values and other essential specification information for architects and the building design profession, all available from the Association’s extensive print library and also online.

Additional innovative and inspirational design tools that showcase eastern softwood products may be found on NELMA’s websites, including the “Virtual Home Tour” and the end-use photo gallery.

Nelma loves ForestNation
