Timberland Windows & Doors (Pvt.) Limited is a Zimbabwean company operating from Bulawayo, situated in the western half of the country near to vast forestry reserves from which the sustainable timber resources are procured.

This custom joinery firm has its roots in a hardwood conversion business, founded in 1980. The manufacture of high quality wooden doors, windows and furniture followed naturally from this foundation of sawmilling and kiln-drying. The company is owned and managed by its two directors who have controlled the business since 1985. They direct a complement of nearly 200 employees, who take pride in the company’s combination of modern business practice with traditional carpentry methods.

Master carpenters since 1990, the company’s products have become known throughout the sub-continent. Approximately 60% of the company’s products are exported to South Africa, firstly through a distributor in Gauteng and by 1996, in order to cope with the demand from the opulent residential market in that area, a branch office was opened in Cape Town. Exports have also been successful to the United States of America and to Europe.

The factory has its own sawmill and kiln-drying facilities. This control enables us to select the best available grades of timber for the manufacturing process. Many of the components utilised through the factory have been laminated to give extra strength and stability to the wood. This meticulous procedure enhances the elegance of the final product, and reduces the wastage of a valuable resource.

Timberland Windows & Doors believes that only the finest craftsmanship is worthy of the beauty inherent in every piece of Zimbabwean Teak. The handsome grain and flowing warmth of this natural hardwood will bring lasting pleasure for generations.
