TIMBER INDUSTRY BLOG
Cedarland forest resources is an emerging timber industry but lets keep an eye on other
industry too. From humble origins, Alsford Timber has grown and grown. Started as a
one-man operation run from a single site in 1882, Alsford Timber today employees 200
members of staff in 18 branches across London, Kent, Surrey and Sussex.
In the 130 years that we’ve been trading, the timber industry has changed significantly –
from the way timber is bought, to the way it’s processed, to the way it’s sold and used. Our
company has had to adapt to accommodate – and sometimes lead – those changes.
Throughout all the years though, the one thing that hasn’t changed is our commitment to
our original core values of quality products, expert knowledge and depth of range.
Quality
Alsford Timber has always been synonymous with top quality wood. Keen to maintain this
reputation, we invested £1m in a new production mill at our site in Erith.
Opened in 2014, the mill has enabled us to bring the production of many of our products
back in-house, giving us greater control over both quality and range.
For us, quality is about more than just our products, it’s also about our service. This is why
we invested £1.5m to upgrade our vehicle fleet in 2015. As important as increasing our
capacity was choosing an environmentally-responsible vehicle supplier, and investing in
driver training to make sure that the professionalism of our staff matches the quality of our
vehicles.
