Our Method
Materials
Our scaffold boards and scaffold tubes use 100% reclaimed materials, helping to make our furniture sustainable and environmentally friendly.
Read our Environmental Policy to see how we work to reduce our impact.
Custom made
We can make Reclaimed Wood Samples to your requirements, including custom dimensions, finishes and shapes. If you have a unique design in mind or need to fill a particular space, we would be happy to discuss your project.
While our focus is on scaffold boards and reclaimed materials, we also offer bespoke options where a project calls for them.
We work with carefully selected UK-based businesses to offer greater variety without compromising our environmental values. One such partner is The Hairpin Leg Company, which offers a wide variety of leg options.
After Care
Assembly
We understand that time is precious, so we build our products with minimal assembly requirements. Visit our Help Guides for assembly instructions and videos.
Maintenance
With a little care, the furniture will last for many years. The oils help protect the surface from stains and water residue, while each piece of reclaimed wood retains its own character.
When selecting boards from our stock, we choose those that we would be happy to have in our own homes.
The appeal of reclaimed wood is its natural feel and rustic character. Small marks—including company branding, abrasions, colour variation, cuts, notches and dents—may remain where they add to the furniture’s appearance.
Do not leave water standing for long periods. Use a clean, damp cloth to wipe up spills.
