About Us
It is more than heritage that inspires WoodTrac to come up with simplified wood-based solutions for
homes, as well as commercial settings. WoodTrac is a division of Sauder Woodworking Co., the
company that made good furniture affordable with its invention of Ready-to-Assemble furniture in
1953. Today, WoodTrac is following in the parent company’s footsteps with simple, affordable solutions
to applications as diverse as ceilings and closets.
Utilizing their furniture know-how, WoodTrac introduced the revolutionary WoodTrac Ceiling System in
2010. With the appearance of a custom-crafted three-dimensional ceiling, the drop ceiling product
became an instant winner with homeowners and business owners looking to add character to a room at
an affordable price.
Encouraged by the success of its ceiling system, WoodTrac engineers and designers took on a new
challenge – a simple, yet affordable, wood-based closet design. Understanding both homeowners
organizational needs as well as dealer and installer demands for simplicity, WoodTrac again pulled from
its furniture expertise to introduce WoodTrac Closets in 2012. Finally, homeowners can have the
finishes, contour moldings, profiles and framed panels of a more expensive custom closet at a fraction of
the cost. Plus, installers became instant fans of the pre-packaged cabinets that can be wall mounted or
floor mounted with no special machinery required.
WoodTrac combines its heritage of innovation with the strength of its state-of-the-art manufacturing
operation in Archbold, Ohio, and a vast distribution network to provide products and services to its
customers in the residential and commercial markets.
Established in 1934, Sauder Woodworking Co. is North America’s leading producer of Ready-toAssemble furniture, and the nation’s fifth largest residential furniture manufacturer in the United States.
It offers a wide range of products, mostly manufactured at its facility in Archbold, Ohio.

WoodTrac® Ceiling System
Introduced in 2010, the revolutionary WoodTrac® Ceiling System offers the ultimate in decorative
wooden ceilings for commercial and residential use. With the appearance of a custom-crafted threedimensional ceiling, the drop ceiling product adds character to a room at an affordable price. Each
ceiling can be individualized with a combination of different molding profiles and molding and panel
finishes. Molding profiles include colonial, cove and tear drop shapes, while molding and panel finishes
consist of abbey oak, bank alder, cherry, light maple and white/paintable options. For a more traditional
ceiling appearance, WoodTrac offers an additional panel finish – a knock-down textured surface. Plus,
because the WoodTrac ceiling system has the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) Chain-of-Custody
Certification, builders, architects, designers and developers using WoodTrac ceiling systems can earn
Leadership in Energy & Environment Design (LEED) points from the U.S. Building Council.
WoodTrac® Closets
Simplicity and affordability are the hallmarks of the new WoodTrac® Closet System. Functional in
customized master suite as well as reach-in closet configurations, WoodTrac wood closets come in a
variety of sizes, finishes and design options tailored to fit your home and organizational needs.
WoodTrac closet cabinetry for the master suite is available in finishes, contour moldings, profiles and
framed panels that are associated with more expensive custom closets at a fraction of the cost.
Features like glass doors and 5-panel drawer construction result in high-end appearance while
hardware-like soft close doors enforce product quality. The simple storage system is available in white,
cherry and espresso finishes with double hanging rods, adjustable shelves or drawers, doors and
shelves. Individual cabinets can be further customized depending on storage needs. The pre-packaged
storage cabinets are 83” high and 15” deep and come in 18”, 24” and 30” widths. Installers like the prepackaged cabinets that can be wall mounted or floor mounted with no special machinery required.
An efficient, organized storage solution, the new WoodTrac Reach-in Closet Kit is constructed of the
same materials and finishes as the WoodTrac full-size closet line and is an affordable alternative to
traditional wire closets. Its engineered wood shelves allow clothes to be stored without the impression
marks traditionally associated with wire. It finishes up to an 8’ wide closet and includes shelves, an
upright, cleats, hanging rods and all necessary mounting hardware.
Environmentally Friendly
WoodTrac products are made of over 80 percent recycled products. All wood panels used at our
production facility are “Environmentally Preferred Product” (EPP) by the Composite Panel Association.
