Building Materials and Millwork Products

Lumberyards & Manufacturers

Quality & Service above all

In a pivotal moment for Woolf Distributing, we were acquired on July 29 by ADENTRA Inc. a leading North American distributor of architectural products. This strategic move aligns seamlessly with our dedication to providing top-tier products and services to our customers. As part of ADENTRA, we gain access to a wide network of logistical and market support. This partnership enables us to serve our customers even more effectively now and in the future.

This 4 year period has been the most dynamic time in Woolf’s history. Woolf has seen great success by representing outstanding, outdoor living space products and continues to be a front-runner in the millwork and general building material industry.

The confidence the market has in Woolf Distributing to be the “go to”, reliable product and service provider is something of which we are proud. Leadership by sales and operations in every facet of our operations has been benchmarked. Year after year, improvements have generated outstanding financial and market respect and genuine appreciation by our customers for what we do.

With the arrival of our new KVAL door hanging equipment in Woodstock, CNC door equipment in Green Bay and the years of knowledge accrued by a dedicated Commercial staff Woolf Distributing has captured the millwork industry market share. Its trajectory has soared over the past decade.

We enter 2022 with anticipated record attendance at our travel road show, highlighting decking, railing and millwork. Exciting additions to our product mix in the siding arena is laying the foundation for meaningful sales growth to our base of business. As capital investments in buildings and equipment continue unabated,

Woolf Distributing is pushing to higher rungs in Best of Class and significant productivity per hour by our employees.

A major investment in CNC automated door and jamb milling equipment was committed to for 2018. The installation of this advanced milling equipment is expected in July. The speed and quality with which it will perform the necessary prep work on doors and jambs will be a dynamic investment in quality and productivity.

General Building Materials continues to position Woolf Distributing as the go-to supplier that has earned the confidence of our dealers and our millwork successes speak for themselves year over year. Each Branch continues to add personnel to accommodate Woolf’s expansion and growth. To maximize the dynamic growth platform Woolf Distributing’s next initiative is to put in place the leadership to guide and direct the decades to come.

The infrastructure and equipment investments will provide the platform that the talented and committed members of Woolf Distributing will propel Woolf to new levels of service and commitment to the industry we serve

The steps taken to position Woolf for the next decade are the boldest in Woolf’s history. The major stakeholders in the Crystal Lake Branch met one Saturday morning to tour a potential new office and warehouse site located 5 minutes away. With a resounding commitment from all parties, Woolf moved our entire operation in 2016 to a refurbished industrial complex. The result was new offices which allowed Woolf to consolidate all offices into one with room for future expansion.

The 195,000 square foot 26 acres complex lays the foundation for future expansion and growth. Woolf kept the original 165,000 and 50,000 square foot buildings, assuring Woolf Distributing of space in the future, not only off-site but plenty of room for expansion at the new location in Woodstock, Illinois.

Warehouse Management Systems where implemented with Green Bay leading the way, Peoria was next in February of 2016, and the implementation in Woodstock and Crystal Lake was completed in 2017. Inventory accuracy and accountability for each step a product takes in the operation is now accounted for and the results are confirming the wisdom of this major investment.

Paint and stain operations have been expanded in Green Bay, the Woodstock paint and stain operation was built around a platform that assumes a 5 times growth target in this ever-growing segment.
