Precision In Sheet Cutting
August 22, 2011
Timber that is Environmentally and Economically Sound
When you ask people in Britain what their two chief concerns are right now, most of them will answer you with ‘the economy’ and ‘the environment’. Indeed, economic growth has been much slower than hoped and the major industrial nations of the world are still dragging their heels with regard to the environment.
Sourcing timber
The state of economy and concern for the environment is very much in the mind of many companies that need to source timber for their operations. These companies generally have less money in their budgets than they once did and know that their customers will insist that the timber they use must be environmentally friendly in both its sourcing and its operations.
Thankfully, help is at hand
Precision cutting
We here at Booker Timber are timber merchants who understand the concerns of businesses and consumers alike. Our environmental awareness and cost-effective operations means that we can provide a fast and professional service that delivers accurate results with eco-friendly timber.
Our hi-tech optimisation software enables us to calculate the most efficient way to cut all kinds of materials, from cut to size chipboard to MDF sheets. This precision cutting means that not only is the amount of waste for each order considerably reduced, but also that customers may well require less boards to complete their order. Happily, the consequences of this are that both the planet and our customers’ budgets get a much needed helping hand.

Source plywood sheets the responsible way
In the past, companies did not generally focus strongly on being environmentally friendly when they were sourcing plywood sheets and other such provisions. However, over more recent years, the emphasis placed on green issues has grown considerably stronger and now it is seen as an issue of the upmost importance.
So, if your firm is looking to purchase wood, you might well have such considerations in mind. After all, it is not only your conscience you have to contend with but also those of your customers. These days, many consumers alter their buying behaviour according to the green status of businesses.
This means your bottom line may suffer if you disregard the opportunities available to become more environmentally sound.
If you source your wood from a timber merchant such as us here at Booker Timber, you can rest assured you will not face any such problems. We can proudly state that we have achieved Chain of Custody certification
Chain of Custody certified forests are managed to ensure long-term timber supplies while also protecting the environment and lives of forest-dependant people.
You can therefore be sure that when you get cut to size chipboard or plywood sheets from us, or indeed any other product, you are not buying irresponsibly sourced materials. If you want to find out more about this issue, you can simply have a look at the relevant section of our website.
