Alaska Wood Industries was founded in 1978 by European immigrants, Ranko and Cveta Ignjatic as a small millwork shop. The Company has since grown and transitioned to the second generation which continues to operate on the same core principles of trust, integrity, dependability, hard work and quality craftsmanship.

The Company boasts a wide range of employees, some seasoned, having over 30 years of seniority and experience with the firm and others new, bringing innovations and recent education to the business. The evolution from old time European hand craftsmanship to the modern production methods has been seamless and the company continues to grow operations while staying true to their roots.

Alaska Wood management embraces the swift technological and architectural advancements in the industry and continues to look for ways to stay ahead. While the Company has grown significantly since opening its doors, the same level of care is taken in the cabinetry process, which has enabled the company to establish itself as one of the premier architectural millwork firms in the Eastern Ontario region.
