The aim of this guide is to encourage greater use of UK grown hardwoods. It provides information on the range of quality available from our sawn hardwood timber and highlights the special features of UK grown hardwoods that are often difficult to obtain from imports. The guide also gives information on timber measurement, the properties and uses of UK hardwoods, and an illustrated technical glossary.
