Meet Bruce Saunders, Founder of a UK-sourced Hardwood business
Meet Bruce, entrepreneur and founder of a UK-grown hardwood timber business: Saunders Seasonings.
Saunders Seasonings is an award-winning timber business based in London and Essex, producing their own London-sourced low carbon hardwoods for businesses, makers and designers big and small. Most of their timber comes from trees felled in and around London; trees that would otherwise be chipped and burned. Instead, they recycle and repurpose them, giving them a second life and ensuring the carbon stays in the wood.
In this episode, Bruce shares with us his personal love for wood as a material, the differences between each type of wood such as Ash and Oak, the environmental benefits of recycling wood, the biggest challenges he faces and we even get a virtual tour in his home of a storage unit made from 6 different types of London trees - a stunning reward!
