75 years of Craftsmanship and a passion for wood

1950

Since 1950, the story of De Bois Blouin has been shaped by one passion: wood. Originally known as Scierie Blouin, the family business was founded on Île d’Orléans, where André Blouin offered log sawing services to local farmers. Over time, he passed on much more than a trade to his son Luc: a sense of rigour and deep respect for the material.

1976

In 1976, Luc Blouin took over the family sawmill. Thanks to his experience and vision, the company expanded its customer base and built a reputation for product quality and personal service. This marked a turning point: the small artisan sawmill gradually became a commercial business recognized for its expertise in wood processing.

1990

The following years were marked by growth. In 1990, the installation of a first lumber kiln for cabinetmaking opened new horizons. The arrival of a moulder then made it possible to turn dried lumber into finished products, broaden the product range and offer more complete solutions to customers.

2000

In 2000, Rémi Blouin joined the family business, becoming the third generation at the helm. His forward-looking vision took the company into new markets. Modern machinery, improved processes, building codes, new finishes and product customization all became levers that grew De Bois Blouin into a recognized expert in wood beams, timber frames and paneling.

A visionary, Rémi Blouin continued this evolution by acquiring a CNC timber-framing machine, also known as a joinery centre. De Bois Blouin thus became the first company in Quebec to own this latest-generation model. Working from 3D digital plans, this technology automates the cutting, drilling and preparation of solid wood pieces. It produces complex joints such as dovetails and mortise-and-tenons with millimetre precision. For the team, this investment marked a major step forward in manufacturing custom timber frames and ready-to-assemble structures.

Today

Today, De Bois Blouin is a family business that keeps evolving. From raw lumber to finished product, the company masters every stage of processing to deliver solid wood products for residential, commercial and architectural projects. Its expertise includes exposed beams, timber frames, interior paneling, exterior paneling, cedar decks and factory finishing.

In 2026

In 2026, the company continues to grow, adopting new management tools to match its ambitions. This evolution is part of a clear vision: to become a Quebec benchmark for premium wood products while keeping the personal approach that sets it apart.

Today, Rémi Blouin leads De Bois Blouin, supported by a dedicated and skilled team. Craftspeople, machinists, technologists, advisors and specialists work together toward a shared goal: to guide every customer with expertise and to make wood products worthy of the projects entrusted to them.

De Bois Blouin is a story of family and a passion for wood, shaped in Quebec for more than 75 years.
