Services
AFP provides professional sawmilling, vacuum kiln drying, sterilization, flattening and planing for urban and locally harvested wood. These hands-on services support homeowners, builders, fine woodworkers, manufacturers and recovery partners while connecting usable material with higher-value local applications.
Atlanta Forest Products develops local, traceable pathways for urban-harvested lumber, including live-edge slabs, dimensional stock, and material for furniture, architectural work, and local manufacturing.
We work with retail, nonprofit, and manufacturing partners to connect recovered wood with appropriate users. Product availability and specifications vary by species, dimensions, and project.
Biochar
AFP develops biochar and carbon-utilization pathways for clean urban wood residuals that are not suited for lumber or industrial products. Potential applications include soil improvement, stormwater management, erosion control, and environmental remediation.
AFP works with technology providers, researchers, land managers, and end users to evaluate production methods, product specifications, and responsible market deployment.
At Atlanta Forest Products, we specialize in professional sawmilling for urban and locally harvested logs. Whether you’re a homeowner looking to turn a special tree into custom furniture or a builder sourcing unique live edge slabs, our sawmill delivers precision-cut boards and slabs ready for your project.
We are equipped for everything from small specialty cuts to large slabs for tables, mantels, countertops, and architectural applications.
Our sawmilling process maximizes yield while preserving the natural character and figure of your wood, giving you high-quality slabs ready for flattening, planing, or kiln drying.
Atlanta Forest Products offers vacuum kiln drying to stabilize slabs and boards while preserving their natural color and character. Drying time varies by species, thickness, starting moisture content and target moisture level. Sterilization-only cycles are also available for lumber that is already dry but requires a controlled heat cycle to address insects or other biological concerns. Contact us to discuss material dimensions, treatment objectives and scheduling.
Atlanta Forest Products offers professional flattening and planing services to prepare your slabs and boards for furniture, countertops, mantels, and architectural projects. Our precision equipment removes twists, warps, and uneven surfaces, delivering smooth, level lumber ready for epoxy tables, custom furniture, and live edge projects. Whether you are working with reclaimed wood, live edge slabs, or custom wood slabs, our services ensure consistent thickness and a clean finish for every project.
