Ekki and Opepe timber sections for lock gates and marine work, along with Balau & Basralocus for piles and fenders have been produced in our Dutch Mill for over 20 years. Keurhout Certified Ekki is increasingly being requested by customers along with FSC timbers, Cumaru, Massaranduba, Angelim, Purpleheart and Piquia. Our Sawmill and machining facilities enable us to offer all these timbers planed, grooved, notched and drilled to customers requirements. Prefabricated structures such as pontoons, landing stages, bridges & dowel-laminated beams can also be manufactured to customers drawings.
FSC accredited certification means that the forest of origin has been independently inspected and evaluated according to strict environmental, social and economical principles and criteria as agreed by the Forest Stewardship Council A.C.
"FSC is an international, non profit association whose members include environmental and social groups and progressive forestry and wood retail companies working in partnership to improve forest management worldwide"
Through our Mill in Holland we form a link in the supply of Keurhout Certified timber from sustainable sources.
Timber bearing the Keurhout Logo has been carefully checked by experts to ensure all certificates of sustainability are in accordance with the requirements set out by the Dutch Government.
