Putting principles into practice
A privately-owned, financially independent company, serving only the best interests of our clients,
we are distinguished not just by an absolute commitment to quality in service and delivery, but by a long-term approach to our growth strategy,
combined with strongly held principles about the need for corporate social and environmental responsibility.
All the timber we use comes from sustainable and
responsibly-harvested sources, while we continue to take proactive measures to address our carbon footprint through the practice of energy efficiency in our daily operations, and specifically in the creation of the Woodwise Recycling initiative.
We set up the Woodwise scheme as an independent,
non-profit initiative by funding the purchase and installation of an industrial timber shredder on our premises,
to recycle both our own waste timber and that of other companies and organisations. The significant quantity of
woodchip fuel produced is a carbon-neutral energy source that is provided free of charge to local schools and public facilities for use in biomass boilers.

Our commitment to Health & Safety is paramount in
all our operations. We are a member of Site Safe UK and have embarked on a strategy to ensure that all employees will be required to hold a current CSCS card that is applicable to their trade or profession.
We are unusual among contemporary shopfitting companies in that we still maintain, and believe in the value of, an active apprenticeship programme, providing school-leavers with an opportunity to acquire trade skills in a supportive environment,
as well as offering retraining opportunities to individuals seeking a career change. This policy is instrumental in developing and strengthening the pool of skilled staff we have to effectively resource our projects – reassuring for our clients, as our in-house resourcing and manufacturing capability ensures consistency and quality control, as well as contributing to timely project outcomes.
