At Ystwyth Valley Sawmill we are conscious of environmental and sustainability issues. That is why we are a Forest Stewardship Council registered supplier.
Living and working in the beautiful Ystwyth Valley, we are very aware of the issues regarding the environment. We take care to use wood from sustainable sources. We pride ourselves on our approach and working practices.
Our concern for the environment started with our supply of logs for fires from sustainable resources. This meant that fossil fuels such as coal are burnt less frequently.
Some of this firewood was too good for burning. This led us to the development of the mill for providing wood for a variety of uses. We specialise in oak and other hardwoods - from sustainable sources - that are used for building and other purposes.
Much of the green oak that we supply is used in sensitive buildings and restorations, so lowering the environmental impact over traditional new build.
