Timber specialists supporting British woodlands
At Vastern Timber, we understand the importance of third-party certification, but we also believe that sustainability should be more than a logo. It’s currently estimated that only 6% of the hardwoods that we use in the UK are British-grown, and yet, only 40% of our mixed broadleaf woodlands are managed. This situation needs to change. When you buy British-grown timber, from a timber specialist like us, you are helping to sustain your native woodlands by directly supporting the management and upkeep of this valuable and beautiful resource.
