Product Information

Planed Softwood

Stockcode:

Our Premier Planed Softwood is sourced from slow-grown Scandinavian Redwood resulting in outstanding quality that is admired amongst our customers. Carefully selected joinery grade Redwood which is more dense and stable, ensuring crisp cuts for clean and accurate joints, We also insist on having our timber cut to its final size, and then carefully kiln-dried to ensure flat, straight timber. We machine, it ourselves to a super smooth finish, ready to paint or stain. The low knot content makes for easier on-site preparation and hence saves you time.

We stock a range of planed softwood timbers, from the very best, our Premier Planed Softwood that we machine ourselves, to a lower grade, but decent quality softwood ideal for projects where the finish is not that critical.

When quality is not the most important consideration, our budget-priced timber is a great alternative to our Premier planed timber, and of course still subject to our high standards as you would expect from a timber merchant.

We also offer a free cross-cutting service so we can cut to length any timber you require, we can also plane the material to your exact size if required. Finally, if you cannot see what you need, we can machine to order your exact requirement, this takes up to 4 working days.

About us

A W Champion Ltd is a prominent and reputable timber specialist company that operates independently in the industry. With a history spanning back to 1929, we have built a strong reputation as leaders in the field.

Our business is spread across the South-East region and boasts ten modern branches strategically located for convenience. Throughout our many years of operation, we have consistently provided exceptional timber products and services to cater to the needs of the trade.

Working with high-quality timber brings a sense of satisfaction and improves the overall outcome of a project. It is worth noting that opting for inexpensive timber often proves to be a misguided financial decision. Those who have experienced the challenges posed by knots, warped joists, or timber that easily splits can attest to this. In such cases, the initial cost savings are overshadowed by the difficulties and setbacks encountered during the work process.

At Champion, we follow a unique approach of directly sourcing our timber from Northern Scandinavia, taking charge of the entire process from machining to selling it to you. This allows us to maintain strict control over the quality and ensure a consistent supply. Our commitment to providing the best quality at competitive prices remains unwavering.

A W Champion Ltd

Customer service at Champion Timber’s New Malden branch was outstanding. Huge thanks to Enrico who helped me and my dad with our big order of treated timber. Enrico was extremely professional and patient with us. Thank you very much!Also quality of timber was good (it was stored inside which is a big plus) and reasonable prices. I would definitely recommend this shop to others.
