We use environmental friendly timber!

At Cotteswood we aim, to the best of our knowledge, to purchase from forests that are very well managed, so that later generations will be able to derive at least as much benefit from them as the present generation claims for itself.

We therefore purchase the vast majority of timber from Timbmet Ltd in Oxford. They have a qualified Environmental Co-ordinator who assesses all of their suppliers and who has introduced a system which allows them to purchase timber preferentially from suppliers who can provide information, which indicates that their forests are being well managed.
