After our annual renewal of our certificates of accreditation, we will become accredited by the newly created International Accreditation Service (IAS). See our contact list for more information on IAS and all companies/agencies appearing on this web site.
WSTI started as a Canadian company before moving to Oregon (USA). Our first promotional brochure already reflected the wide range of testing capabilities and know-how about engineered wood products and connections.
Today, WSTI has highly trained personnel and facilities to provide a full range of product research, design, and development. A selection of tests performed by WSTI personnel is illustrated in our testing library.
