Sheet Cutting From Booker Timber

CNC Cutting,Sheets — Tags: , , — Booker Timber @ 9:09 am

Booker Timber have a wealth of experience to offer our customers when it comes to the supply and cutting of timber sheeting.
When it comes to sheet cutting, our use of the latest technology means we can produce accurate results quickly. The saws are able to cope with cutting large sizes of wood as well. Our services are available to suit all needs, from simply cutting a sheet of wood to size, or routing and shaping components. This can be particular useful for furniture makers, or people working in aviation and packaging industries.

We can cut, wrap, and re-label your own products, or we can supply wood sheets from our own sustainable sources. Take a look around our website for more information on our complete range of wood sheets, and the sizes and grades available. For now, we will highlight several of our popular types. We have chipboard in stock, which either comes in standard or moisture resistant grades, which can be supplied as normal or as tongue and groove panels. We can supply these sheets in 3 different thicknesses to suit your needs.

We also have a range of plywood sheets cut to size, and if you’re looking for strong, durable woods on the market, then you may find Birch Plywood is just the ticket. Its smooth surface, and the attractive appearance of the higher grades of this hardwood ply means it can lend itself to attractive shaped work. With other varieties of hardwood and softwood ply available, the possibilities are endless.

Wood Veneers, The Ideal Material For Domestic Products

Sheets,Veneers — Tags: , , — Booker Timber @ 9:03 am

Although much of the stock at Booker Timber is raw materials, we don’t just shape, cut, and sell the pure wood. As a timber merchant, we recognise the need to provide wood that has been treated/processed, and is ready to use.

Take a look around our website, and you’ll come across our wide range of wood veneers. Given that the process of veneering involves gluing thin slices of wood on to mdf sheets, it may not seem that striking. Choose the right veneer however, add a touch of stain or varnish, and the finished result can be striking.

Because veneers use thin layers of wood, it means that we at Booker Timber, and our woodwork customers, have access not just to the common species, but to the rarer types of wood as well. We sell double sided cut to size mdf veneers in common species, while rarer, more expensive woods are used as one-sided veneers. All the veneers are available in two different size sheets, and in a variety of thicknesses, so you can easily find a veneer to suit your door, cabinet top, or flooring project.

Here at Booker Timber, our stock includes steamed beech, pine, oak, am maple, sycamore, and chestnut. We also have birch, ash, cherry, am black walnut, and q/c sapele. Although we have a large range of wood veneers in stock, all sourced from sustainable forests, we also offer a bespoke service, and will try and source your chosen species of wood veneer.

The Advantages Of CNC Cutting

CNC Cutting,Sheets,Timber — Tags: , , — Booker Timber @ 9:48 am

Although the construction industry has all kinds of technology, skills, and equipment at its disposal, when it comes to wood, you sometimes need to employ the services of a good timber supplier. Timber suppliers can not only supply raw materials, but also use cnc cutting machines, to provide you with the right size, and finish of product.

Using Computer Numerical Control (CNC) is almost like printing out some work on a computer, except instead of ink and paper, we’re using a cutting tool and wood. The benefits of this are threefold. We can deal with large sheets of wood, and cut in a way that reduces wastage and saves you money. Our work also involves either cut to size mdf or other wood, or cutting and shaping to the design you supply, with all the settings sent from computer to the cutting machine.

This can be ideal for domestic products, such as decorative furniture and wall panelling. It’s an accurate and high speed way of routing and cutting that can be used for not only wood, but plastic and mdf as well.

Booker Timber deal with large and small orders, for a variety of different industries, from aerospace to packaging. Along with precise cutting services, we can also offer timber supplies, such as real wood veneers, plywood sheets, and self-assembly raised bed kits, for gardens and nurseries. To find out more about CNC cutting, and what the technology can do, visit us online, or call us for quotations and advice.

Timber that is Environmentally and Economically Sound

Cutting News,Sheets,Timber — Tags: , , , , — Booker Timber @ 9:00 am

When you ask people in Britain what their two chief concerns are right now, most of them will answer you with ‘the economy’ and ‘the environment’. Indeed, economic growth has been much slower than hoped and the major industrial nations of the world are still dragging their heels with regard to the environment.

Sourcing timber
The state of economy and concern for the environment is very much in the mind of many companies that need to source timber for their operations. These companies generally have less money in their budgets than they once did and know that their customers will insist that the timber they use must be environmentally friendly in both its sourcing and its operations.

Thankfully, help is at hand

Precision cutting
We here at Booker Timber are timber merchants who understand the concerns of businesses and consumers alike. Our environmental awareness and cost-effective operations means that we can provide a fast and professional service that delivers accurate results with eco-friendly timber.
Our hi-tech optimisation software enables us to calculate the most efficient way to cut all kinds of materials, from cut to size chipboard to MDF sheets. This precision cutting means that not only is the amount of waste for each order considerably reduced, but also that customers may well require less boards to complete their order. Happily, the consequences of this are that both the planet and our customers’ budgets get a much needed helping hand.
