For the second time, Raute has been recognised as Supplier of the Year by members of the APA – The Engineered Wood Association. The award was presented during the Chairman’s Dinner at the APA-EWTA Annual Meeting on September 30, 2024. Representatives from Raute, including Trevor Wendt, Todd Kurle, and Seth Rogers, were present to accept the honor.
The EWTA Supplier Awards Program acknowledges member companies that excel in delivering innovative solutions and exceptional service to APA member manufacturers. Raute, a long-standing member of the Engineered Wood Technology Association (EWTA), received the award through a majority vote by APA members.
Raute previously won the award in 2020, though the 2021 ceremony was canceled due to the pandemic. Reflecting on the achievement, Trevor Wendt, Vice President of Sales, North America, stated, “This award is very meaningful to Raute. Being selected twice by APA member customers and colleagues shows that the industry recognises Raute’s efforts in advancing the engineered wood products (EWP) market.”
