History
DMG Hardwoods grew its first roots in the jungles of the Guyana's. While surveying timber for a hydroelectric dam Mr. Feuer came across a unique species called Dicorynia Guianensis. Used extensively in the Netherlands for water works, Angelique as it is commonly called, seemed a good candidate for lobster trap runners. Traditional oak runners where being devoured by marine borers so an alternative wood was needed. During production of runners one thing led to another and the idea of making exterior decking from the same specie seemed plausible. DMG Naval Deck was born. Soon after DMG expanded into the emerging market of live edge slabs, finalizing the three pillars of the company. Today DMG Hardwoods stocks a wide variety of unique woods, domestic and imported. Always dedicated to environmentally sound forest utilization DMG continues to grow.
Our facilities are located in the town of York in Southern Maine.

Martin Feuer
Always a lumberman, Martin Feuer cut his teeth working with his father in a small sawmill in New Hampshire. As young men do Mr. Feuer eventually cut out on his own acquiring sawmills, distribution networks, retail yards and an international trading arm. The latter became his passion as he took work as a consultant to the timber industry worldwide. From the Great Taiga in Siberia to the jungles of the Amazon. Mr. Feuer has striven to implement tenants of sustainable forestry and conservation. Today at 71 years young he continues the mission for a sustainable forestry structure through DMG Hardwoods. Always ready to share his knowledge wrapped in a fascinating story Mr. Feuer is truly a lumberman in the old traditions. He looks forward to chatting with anyone with an interest in wood no matter how small or obscure.
