Vastern Timber Joins!

We fully acknowledge the climate emergency. And recognise that we humans are the cause of it.

We also understand that our business has a choice right now. We can carry on as normal and be part of the problem. Or take action and be part of the solution.

Our decision is to act. And to be accountable at every step.

Our next move? Joining Business Declares. The fast-growing network of businesses who acknowledge the climate and ecological emergency.

As part of this network, our aim is to continually cut our negative impacts by lowering emissions as fast as possible – and reducing waste in all its forms.

At the same time, we’re creating a positive impact on our natural and built environments. Decarbonising construction and enhancing the ecological value of our woodlands.

A concern for people and planet has been part of our family business for four generations. But we know we can do better.

We’re looking forward to continuing the journey, sharing our progress – and being part of this collective drive for change.

Vastern Timber’s film series, Wood For The Trees, explores topics and issues facing our trees and woodlands, from using trees as a nature based solution to creating resilient woodlands for improved biodiversity and impacts for the climate.
