Choose Timber

Timber is a renewable material, and the wood in a finished product continues to store carbon absorbed while the tree was growing. Those benefits depend on responsible forestry, suitable specifications and a useful working life.

Start with the source

Provenance matters. Our sourcing work combines long-standing supplier relationships with visits to forests and sawmills, documentation checks and a clear specification for each order.

Choose for the application

Different species have different properties. Selecting the right timber, allowing for its movement and detailing it for its environment helps it perform well and makes good use of the material.

Make the material count

Careful selection, machining and efficient cutting lists can reduce avoidable waste. Timber can also be repaired and reused when the design and condition allow.
