Kiln drying

Drying runs under a schedule matched to species and thickness. Final moisture is verified with a meter, pack by pack

Our own kiln chambers – we dry the lumber ourselves rather than buying it dried
Final moisture 8–10% or another agreed level, checked pack by pack with a meter
Every pack stacked with spacers, strapped and labelled before loading

Questions we get before the first order

What is your minimum order?

It depends on the species and specification. As a rule of thumb we work from full truckloads, but for a first trial order we are open to smaller volumes – write to us and we will tell you honestly whether it makes sense.

Can you dry to a moisture level other than 8–10%?

Yes. The schedule is set per species and thickness, so tell us the target moisture and what the material is for, and we will confirm what is realistic.

Do you grade to a European standard?

We grade to the specification agreed with the customer. Many of our buyers send their own grading rules and we work to those; where there is no such document we agree the rules in writing before production starts.

How long does an order take?

Fresh-sawn material is the fastest, since it ships straight after sawing. Kiln-dried lumber depends on species and thickness – the drying cycle itself is the longest part. We give a date with the offer, not after.

Who arranges transport?

Either side can. Tell us the delivery terms you work with and the destination, and we will quote accordingly.
