Sustainable and Recycled Materials
Using only recycled, reclaimed or certified sustainable forestry timber is an essential part of the business' philosophy. Rare and specialist timbers can be requested and indeed sourced through forestry accredited merchants. Further to this, the company has developed a waste sensitive approach when sourcing timber - dubbed "second life" or "up-cycling", timber is given a second life. This is achieved by gathering timber that may not be suitable for wholesale to the public or disregarded by craftspeople as not perfect as they may be bent, warped or odd sized off-cuts. By salvaging these timbers and using simple techniques to turn unwanted stock into high quality products, we often achieve superior results to store bought "finished" timber.
