We pride ourselves on working with our planet’s only mass-volume renewable building material – timber, the solution to achieving net zero carbon targets. It is ecological and sustainable and a truly remarkable structural material
We support the #TimeforTimber campaign which explains how timber construction can help support the economy and help us reach our net zero carbon targets by 2050. Have a look at the campaign video and listen to what some of the industry’s leading experts have to say on the subject. You can read more about the campaign at timefortimber.org
When it comes to a sustainable built environment, material choices matter. Wood is a natural, renewable and sustainable material for building, with a lighter carbon footprint than steel or concrete.
CO2 removed from atmosphere for every cubic metre of timber used
of our waste timber is recycled or reused
Using timber in construction is so important to help meet the net zero carbon targets set by government and industry bodies alike. Converting timber into a workable construction product uses far less energy and creates far less pollution than other primary materials such as brick and blocks, steel and concrete. Any waste timber that we produce is 100% recyclable. This is why we’re proud to build with timber.
Using more wood can help us reduce CO2 and fight climate change. We are therefore supporting the Wood for Good “Wood CO2ts Less” campaign which aims to promote the use of all wood products as low carbon materials, illustrating how using wood can help reduce CO2 in the atmosphere and contribute to slowing climate heating.
Using wood in construction is a cost-free solution to carbon capture – reducing CO2 in the atmosphere

The substitution of wood for carbon-intensive materials is one of the most effective ways to use limited biomass resources to mitigate climate change.
