Why Reclaim? Advantages of Reclaimed Wood

Environmental Benefits

  • Reuse / Recycling (no cutting of trees)
  • Old timber is generally stronger. Slower grown = tighter grain
  • Many old beams were only taken from the heart of a tree, its strongest part
  • Many species are protected and cannot be cut today, including: Chestnut, Jarah, Teak, Mahogany, US Southern Longleaf Pitch Pine (less than 5% of original forests remain)
  • The only ecologically sound source of these materials is through recycling and reclamation.

We started with a philosophy that wood is precious and brings character. Once the original site changes, we see an opportunity to transfer that character to another good home, possibly yours. Many of our rarest wood products can now only be obtained via recycling and reclamation, and others are imbued with unique history that you can build on.

Design and Aesthetic Benefits

  • Deeper colour is common to many historic woods, as a patina of their past experience
  • Old timber is generally more stable, harder, and tighter grain
  • Minor defects such as nail holes can add character in 'rustic' or contemporary finish
  • Many reclaimed products come from historic locations which may add unique character such as: Brewery/Cider Mill boards for a bar; Fleet St. flooring for a den; Tobacco factory beams for a humidor; Government office woods for a hall; Dance hall floors for a studio or lounge; Textile mill pine for a sewing room; or 900 yr old Castle beams for a showpiece mantle.
    What will our woods whisper about the world they witnessed before you welcomed them?
