Built Close to Home: The Advantage of North American Manufacturing
Choosing a North American manufacturer means faster timelines, code familiarity, and better alignment with your construction standards, no matter where you build.

At AcuJoist, our I-Joists are manufactured in British Columbia, but our reach goes far beyond. Whether your project is in Western Canada, the Prairies, Ontario, or the U.S., building with a North American supplier gives you a strategic edge in quality, turnaround, and compliance.
Manufacturing close to home means faster response times and reduced shipping delays. If your jobsite needs a last-minute change or resupply, you don’t have to wait on foreign shipments or fight customs timelines. Our proximity allows us to support distributors, engineers, and builders with reliable fulfillment and greater flexibility.
It also means code alignment. Our production teams work with CSA- and APA-certified processes that meet the structural and safety requirements of North American jurisdictions, helping your projects move through approvals with confidence and consistency.
While our roots are in BC, our products are built to perform across a wide range of climates, elevations, and engineering conditions. That regional understanding is baked into every order, helping ensure long-term durability and performance wherever you're building.
And when it comes to sustainability, shorter supply chains matter. By reducing freight distances and sourcing many materials within Canada, we lower the environmental footprint of every joist while maintaining strength and quality.
At AcuJoist, we believe North American manufacturing isn’t just practical. It’s a performance advantage. It’s how we help our partners deliver stronger results, tighter timelines, and more reliable outcomes on every project.
