When it comes to choosing timber for your projects, why look beyond our borders? It’s time to take a stand for locally sourced materials—and here’s why.
Imported Timber: A Long Journey, Big Impact
Many imported woods, like Ramon or Meranti, are harvested from forests in mainly Malaysia. Beyond the environmental concerns of logging in these regions, consider the carbon footprint of shipping those timbers halfway across the world.
South African Hardwood: Harder, Faster, Better
South African Eucalyptus (Grandis), or Saligna, is equally durable, reliable, and stunning. Whether you’re building furniture, crafting dowels, or taking on ambitious architectural projects, our hardwoods stand up to the task. Plus, you’re not left waiting for weeks on end for shipments to arrive at the port.
By choosing local timber, you’re not just cutting down on lead times—you’re making a conscious decision to invest in quality without compromise.
Proudly South African: A Choice With Purpose
Every purchase of locally sourced products strengthens our economy. When you support South African hardwood, you’re supporting jobs, industries, and communities right here at home. The Proudly South African logo is more than just a badge—it’s a commitment to growing our nation and its people.
Hardwood With Heart
Local timber carries with it the story of South African resilience, innovation, and sustainability. So, the next time you’re selecting wood for your project, ask yourself: Why choose something from across the globe when you can support the land you love?
Proudly South African hardwood is hard to beat—literally and figuratively. It’s tough, it’s local, and it’s here, ready to help you build something incredible.
