Think of trees as the world’s air filtration system. Every day, through photosynthesis, forests all over the globe ingest CO², locking in the carbon, and generating fresh oxygen. Over a year, just one acre of forest will absorb twice the CO² produced by an average car.

All timbers in our production process are sourced from companies involved in using timber from replenishable forest programmes and where 3 trees are re-planted for every one used. Harvesting and replanting forests sustainably, keeps the tree stock young and growing, which maximises the capture of carbon.

The energy used to harvest, process and deliver the timber for our roofs is extremely low. This reduces the typical embodied carbon footprint of a timber structure. We use a state of the art wood burner, with an emissions regulator to produce energy for factory (hot water and heating)

they age absorption declines. Each cubic metre of timber locks in about a tonne of carbon. Unless wood is either burnt or rots, the carbon remains safely stored. CO2 absorption Wildlife Clean air The energy used to harvest,

All our wood shavings are collected and bagged up for distribution. We supply to small local businesses free of charge. WE TREAT THE ENVIRONMENT LIKE

Before deciding which tree to fell, our timber supplier will fly drones to identify zones that  should be left alone. By leaving certain areas of woodland undisturbed, we ensure that wildlife continues to flourish.

We use recycled materials during production to dramatically reduce waste to landfill. Sodra’s timber mills use everything harvested. Approximately 50% of log volume becomes sawn timber. The rest is used by the pulp industry and wood board industry.

There is no construction material available that offers more environmental benefits than timber does. Renewable, non-toxic, recyclable, bio-degradable and forests absorb CO2. Creating timber also uses far less energy than steel or aluminium. Exceptional performance Trees absorb most CO2 whilst they are growing,
