CraftMaster molded door designs are manufactured using advanced panel technology, wood fiber, and environmentally safe resins to create precisely engineered wood products that perform better than their solid wood counterparts. A CraftMaster door design is made from an engineered wood fiber mat that is molded under intense heat and pressure into an 1/8" (3.2mm) thick sheet of high-density fiberboard. The result assures consistent quality from door to door, room to room, and home to home.

Towanda, Pennsylvania is home to the technology that created CraftMaster Door Designs in 1974. Located on over 270 acres, the Towanda mill pioneered the development of Pre-Stained door designs, and continues to be the only facility worldwide to manufacture this proprietary product with this technology.

Using its TEC™ patented and proprietary manufacturing technology, the CMI facility in Towanda also manufactures both MiraTEC Trim and Extira Panels. Multiple manufacturing lines and a highly efficient operation allow for optimal production flexibility and excellent customer service. With a team of scientists and engineers constantly improving its product offerings, CMI will continue to lead the building products market.

Environmentally Responsible Manufacturing
At the heart of all CMI products is a commitment to an environmentally friendly manufacturing process. No old growth timber is harvested to make CraftMaster, MiraTEC or Extira. Instead, wood chips, which are the by-products of sawmill operations, are broken down into fibers, and then exposed to intense heat and pressure to create CMI engineered wood products.
