Our Facilities

Sawmill

Located at Ngahere in the Grey Valley on the West Coast, we cut locally grown Pinus Radiata Pruned and Unpruned logs sourced from Ngai Tahu Forestry.

The logs are milled into the various timber grades - Clears and Appearance, Verified Structural Framing, and other lower grades such as No.2 Framing, Merch & Industrial/Boxing. The timber is then processed through the different stages for end-product.

Kiln Drying

We complete the kiln drying of our timber on site at Ngahere for all purposes – dryframe, pre-treating, dressed interior timbers.
