Perth is turning green
At Austim, we’re all about sourcing the perfect timber for your unique project. We have access to a number of sources of recycled timber in Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria which will provide you with that distinctive, one-off look. Austim is proud to represent and distribute for Kennedy's Timbers who are Australia's largest producer of premium recycled eco sustainable timbers. Through this relationship we can provide product with FSC Recycled chain of custody certification if required.
Enhance your project with the distinct character and extensive range of durable, eco-sustainable recycled timber typically refined and re-manufactured to produce a high quality product but one whose age and former use is still visible. Due to the time involved and labour intensive nature of the work necessary to recover and re-manufacture recycled timbers they are typically priced at a premium to an equivalent new piece of timber.

Note: To allow flexibility in exact species supply, we may suggest a blend (such as a ‘Class 1 Durable Blend’) instead of a specific species of timber. We generally do not hold stock of recycled timber because every job is a little different so lead-times apply.
