Cut-to-size MDF and chipboard can be ideal material solutions for both tradesmen and DIY enthusiasts as their versatility, strength and ease of use make them the perfect choice for a wide range of trade related tasks and DIY jobs. Similarly, plywood like materials can also be very handy as they are very strong and durable.

Certainly, if you are a relatively accomplished artisan, it is quite possible to make very attractive furniture pieces out of such materials – after all, much of the so called “flat-pack” furniture available to buy these days is made of man-made wood.

However, with the economy still staggering and the Government’s austerity measures now starting to bite; many people are now finding it difficult to find enough cash to undertake even the most modest of building projects or DIY tasks. Indeed, with trade prices rising across the board, everything from tools to raw materials is now more expensive than ever before.

To this end, our state-of-the-art CNC routing and cutting equipment ensures that we lose minimal amounts of wood, thereby creating more cost-efficient operations which deliver direct cost benefits to our customers.
