We are a local New Zealand family business that specialises in producing new pieces of work from recycled timbers sourced in New Zealand. All our products are handcrafted and we use a wide range of finishes. At Wood Grain NZ our focus is sustainability in using recycled timbers and using safe and natural finishing products.

Here is a little about our family business.
David Gillard, Woodworker, Husband, Dad - is a self-taught woodworker and has a love for working with timber. He has worked in a lot of different industries but has finally found his passion. He enjoys the challenge that woodworking brings, and the variety of different works that can be created from a seemingly simple piece of timber.
Dawn, Wife, Mum - works along side with David creating new products and helping with quality control. Two year old daughter, product tester, and new baby on the way that we have high expectations for.

Our goal is to create woodworking pieces that last the test of time in a world where many products are cheap and do not last long.

We do custom work and most of our products can be customised to suit your needs.

WHY USE RECYCLED TIMBER?

In this world of unneccessary waste you can be sure that you will not be adding to the problem. In this world of native forests rapidly declining you can be sure you are not contributing to the destruction. By choosing a piece of Wood Grain NZ furniture or product you are giving a piece of timber a second lease of life. This is because all our timber is recycled.

Recycled timber has several advantages. Timber from our past was mostly sourced from the greatest of greatest trees and therefore was of the highest top quality of timber, which right now can not be replicated. Recycled timber found in New Zealand comes from numerous diverse sources which includes old houses, sheds,farms and factories. Most of this timber was hand logged during the 19th and early 20th Century. Recycled timber has retained the quality of the past whilst collecting historical markings from the passing of time, such as nail holes, gum veins and marks from weathering. By choosing recycled timber you are not only making a sustainable timber option but you are also honouring our history and heritage by making use of a truly distinctive piece of timber.

Wood Grain Nz use recycled timber for all our products and projects as this will reduce the impact to and destruction of our limited timber resources. Recycled timber guarantees to be just as good or even better than new timber on the market. We remill a lot of our recycled timber we collect.

The rustic look is becoming much more and far more popular in the interior design sectors and for that reason the popularity of recycled timber is growing. The use of recycled timbers ensures a range of special natural colours that are deep, warm and radiate charm and character.

Now the Wood Grain NZ family company has a chance to create something stunning from a piece of timber milled many years prior. That's giving it a new lease on life
