Timber Kilning
East Brothers offers high-quality timber kilning services, providing kiln-dried material that meets the needs of various construction and woodworking projects. Kiln drying is a controlled process that reduces the moisture content of timber to optimal levels, ensuring greater stability, reduced shrinkage, and enhanced durability. This method is particularly beneficial for preventing warping, cracking, and other issues that can arise with green timber, making it an excellent choice for precise applications and long-lasting results.
One of the key advantages of choosing East Brothers is our commitment to sustainability. We heat our kilns using by-product woodchips from our own sawmilling operations, reducing waste and minimizing our environmental footprint. This eco-friendly approach not only supports our green initiatives but also ensures a reliable and consistent drying process.
While kiln-dried timber offers many benefits, such as improved strength and a smoother finish, it’s important to note that the process can slightly increase costs and may make the wood more brittle compared to air-dried alternatives. However, the trade-off is often worth it for projects requiring dimensional stability and a professional finish.
For those in the trade, we also offer kiln drying for packs of timber, ensuring your materials are ready for immediate use in your projects. Contact us today to discuss how our kiln drying services can meet your timber needs.
