Elm slab

Elm slabs make for the perfect statement piece, shown here in our Fair Wood office as a beautiful seating of meeting table and chairs.

Where does this timber come from?

Elm, or Ulmus Procera, is salvaged from our friends in Southern Gippsland, who practice agroforestry on their farm, growing tree plantations on previously cleared land. Elm is a fast-growing tree species that sequesters carbon quickly as it grows. Stormfallen or diseased trees are salvaged for timber.

Unfortunately, the Elm Leaf Beetle and Dutch Elm Disease has seen many Elm populations in the northern hemisphere dramatically decrease. Victoria now holds some of the most important populations of Elm in the world.
