Welcome to
Ancestral Floors Inc.
Ancestral Floors Inc., founded by Bob Lachance, reflects
a lifetime of ambition, dedication and innovation. Bob’s
father worked in a large sawmill near Jackman, Maine
(USA), where they hunted and went fishing after work.
Influenced by his father and their activities, Bob
developed a deep appreciation of nature and the lumber
industry, thus shaping his future.
In 1980, following
an intensive course of study, Bob was awarded a
certificate in general forestry and his license as a
wood
scaler. By the fall of 1984, Bob became the manager of
procurement and the head scaler for a Quebec forestry
society. He was responsible for 95 million board feet
every year. Not content, in 1993, Bob ventured to create
“Bob Forest Products Inc.” and by 2001, is manufacturing
larch flooring, the trademark of Ancestral Floors today.
Extensive research
and development has placed Ancestral Floors at the
forefront worldwide in the manufacture of pre-oiled
flooring. Bob has brought the consumer the highest
quality, most innovative flooring choice available
today.
A third generation
is right around the corner as we often see William
following in his father’s footsteps and his love of
nature.
