Esgair
Timber Co. Ltd. is a company based in rural Mid-Wales, producing
a sustainable and high quality range of homegrown timber products.
We
will be working closely with our customers to ensure that our
produce has the most robust environmental credentials, whilst
maintaining a solid standard of quality.
Our
own saw mill will process our homegrown timber to structural
grade sawn timber for sale into the local construction and timber
framing market. Have a look at how the work is progressing on
our ambitious project here.
All
the harvesting and mill waste will be recycled through a
biomass CHP generator which will generate approx 700 megawatt
hours of electricity annually, for our own use in the saw mill,
with the residue for sale via the national grid. This considerable
investment is due to arrive in July 2008. The heat generated
is used to dry products as required by customers.
The
forest has just been accepted by the Soil Association as the
first forest in Organic Conversion in the UK. |
