Dubeau Brothers Inc. was founded in 1936 by
Jules and William Dubeau. They then operated a sawmill located
northeast of Montreal, in St-Norbert. Even at this early stage,
they were the second largest manufacturer of hardwood in Canada,
a testament to their hard work and long term vision.
Ten years later, they changed the vocation of the company,
marketing hardwood flooring through building contractors and
specialized retailers.
During the 1960’s, Dubeau Brothers Ltd. then proceeded
in the development of parquet, an avant-garde and immediately
popular initiative which complemented their hardwood flooring
product mix.
During the 1980’s, to meet an ever increasing demand,
Les Parquets Dubeau Ltd introduced pre-finished wood products
followed in the 1990’s by the launch of a high quality
prefinished hardwood flooring under the ETERNA brand name.
A successful network of specialized flooring retailers in
Canada and the United States was developed to support the
high quality and exclusive product line of Eterna hardwood
flooring.
In 2001, Les Parquets Dubeau Ltd and Lauzon Enterprises joined
forces. This successful merger resulted in the launch of an
ambitious corporate strategic plan where united forces and
shared collective knowledge greatly benefited the corporation
and customers alike. |
