Cut Ripped To Width Timber Suitable for All DIY Projects
Weatherbar's Ripped To Width (RTW) planks are the first step on the in house processing. Cut from wide wany edged boards, the RTW planks are a rustic starting point for your DIY project. The planks are squared on all four edges (no wany sides or bark) but a degree of machining or woodworking is required to get a finished product. Unless of course you're after rough sawn timber for shelves, mantle pieces or window boards!
A large degree of tolerance in width and thickness is to be expected from this product but be assured we will never supply under the minimum measurement described. We only use prime grade oak for our planks so quality is assured.
Let's keep it simple. We only use Prime Grade timber.
The best from the most prestigious and reliable suppliers across the globe. Hardwood is never perfect, but ours is close.
Oak is a hardwood of the Quercus genus and comes in many different species.
At Weatherbar we only use Prime Grade American White, American Red & European Oak species. Oak is strong, hard and mechanically sound making it the ideal timber for construction materials, flooring and furniture.
In an attempt to reduce our carbon footprint and be as environmentally friendly as possible, we collect all of our chippings and sawdust to make in to briquettes.
These briquettes are then sold or used to heat our factory during the winter!
Sadly, we live in a world where the origin of some timber (particularly hardwoods) cannot always be verified. Especially exotic hardwood that comes in to the UK from the Far East, South America & Africa.
Deforestation and the illegal harvesting of timber is a serious issue and should be a concern to everyone as the stewards of our planet. This is the reason we take such a hard stance on the origin of the timber materials we use.
Through the various industrial bodies that are available, we strive to ensure all of the timber we use has been removed from forests and woodland in a responsible and ethical manner. That way we can pass on peace of mind to our customers that everything you buy from us is sustainable and certified.
