Since 2004, Total Timber has been a reliable player in the world of Fijnhout.
What started with a passion for wood and a sharp eye for quality has become a specialized importer and wholesaler with a wide range of deciduous wood from Europe, the United States and Canada.
We deliver wood to the furniture industry, interior construction, stair manufacturers and other professionals who only want to work with the best. And that is exactly what we offer: carefully selected wood, competitively priced and available directly from stock.
Good forest management ensures that we use every tree optimally. The global demand for wood, wood products and paper is constantly growing. A continuous supply of wood is insured with responsible forest management.
Honoring the trunk is essential for optimum utilization, because bark cannot be used for making paper. So all "waste" pieces must be stripped of bark. However, the bark can be used again for fossil fuel.
The scales of the trunk are the first pieces that go to the fragmenter when the trunk starts his journey through the sawmill. This ideal example shows that the entire tribe is used for wood production, apart from the scales. In fact, several "waste" will share, such as the end of pieces and sharing with a too large defect, while sawing the trunk to the fragmenter. Each tribe has its own problems and will be treated differently.
The outer parts of the trunk contain the least knots. This error -free wood will usually be used as planks or ribs in thickness ranging from 20 to 80 mm.
Further to the heart of the trunk, the number of knots increases and the wood is less suitable for ribs and shelves. The square or rectangular beams and heavier wood parts are sawn from this part. The real center is only suitable for construction wood. There are most of them knots here because this is the oldest part of the trunk. These are branches that have been removed in the past and later covered by the growing of the tree.
At Total Timber we offer wood with both FSC® and PEFC certification. Both quality marks guarantee sustainable forest management, but with a different approach. This way we - and you as a customer - can always choose what fits best with the project or the end user.
The FSC quality mark guarantees that the wood comes from forests that are managed in a social, ecological and economic way. The entire chain is certified from hood to end product.
Advantages: Recognized worldwide, strictly controlled, frequently asked in tenders and public projects.
PEFC is the largest certification system in the world and cooperates with local forest managers. PEFC also sets strict requirements for replanting, biodiversity and working conditions, with a pragmatic approach.
Advantages: widely supported, flexible system, fits well with private and regional forestry.
We import our wood directly from sawmills in Europe, the US and Canada. Because we visit these sawmills personally, we know exactly under what circumstances the wood is produced. This way we guarantee quality and transparency.
At Total Timber we actively think along with you. We not only offer competitive quotes and fast deliveries, but also tailor -made advice and customized solutions. We keep the lines short and switch quickly - exactly what you need if you really want ahead.
Certainly! You are very welcome. Please contact us to make an appointment, then we will ensure that someone is ready for you who thinks along with you.
