Domestic manufacturing has become a critical component of a resilient supply chain. At CTI, it works alongside our global network  to provide both scale and stability. The Atlanta facility strengthens our ability to respond to changing conditions while maintaining consistent supply across key product categories, including exterior door components and millwork systems. Why Now? The Market Shift Toward Domestic Manufacturing For 20 years, offshoring was the economically dominan

CTI’s Atlanta manufacturing facility was built to strengthen control, precision, and execution across critical door frame components and millwork  production. Opened in 2020, the facility brings advanced machining and end-work capabilities into a domestic environment, allowing CTI to oversee key stages of production with greater consistency. It also allows us to get closer to our customers, reducing lead times while maintaining the quality standards  CTI is known for globally

In today’s global environment, supply chain stability is not accidental. It is engineered. At CTI, production diversification is a deliberate strategy designed to protect continuity, manage risk, and preserve performance for our customers. By aligning manufacturing by region and by mill based on substrate availability, technical capability, cost structure, and overall risk profile, we create a resilient production model built for long-term stability.

At CTI, Southeast Asia is not simply part of our supply chain; it is central to our long-term manufacturing strategy. The region offers a powerful combination of resources, mature wood processing infrastructure, and scalable production capacity. When paired with CTI’s global quality standards and technical oversight, Southeast Asia becomes more than a sourcing location. It becomes a strategic manufacturing engine designed for consistency and growth.  Matching Fiber to Functio

At CTI, our strength isn’t just in what we produce, it’s in where and how we produce it. Behind every door frame, jamb, door threshold, molding profile, and substrate is a coordinated global mill network designed to deliver consistency, flexibility, and performance. By strategically aligning production capabilities across multiple countries, we ensure reliable supply, specialized expertise, and scalable capacity for our customers. This is how our global footprint works, and
