Our approach

Three principles behind every order.

Built for timber, by people who have traded it. A trading team with structured tooling.

Sustainable by default

98% of the network is FSC or PEFC certified. Deforestation-free since day one. Compliance is not an add-on. It is the baseline.

Transparent pricing

Clear quotes with the context behind them. Live prices for standard dimensions. No hidden fees, no opaque brokerage.

People you can call

A dedicated trader from your first enquiry onward. 30+ years of combined timber experience across the team, reachable by phone.

The process

From request to reorder.

1

Tell us what you need

Order standard dimensions instantly online or submit a custom request. Spec, volume, delivery window. We take it from there.

70+ sawmills, one contact
You talk to us. We orchestrate the rest of the network behind that conversation.
2

Receive a competitive quote

We run your request across the relevant part of the network, compare offers, and come back with the most competitive one. Standard dims: instant. Custom: within a day.

Automation that saves you time
Live pricing on standard products, document parsing on custom specs, no chasing across email threads.
3

Confirm, and we handle execution

Transport booking, paperwork, EUDR documentation, all handled. You get live ETA, order status, and a single point of contact.

EUDR compliance included
Geolocation, due diligence statements via TRACES, and audit-ready evidence on every order. Not an add-on.
4

Delivery and documentation

Trucks arrive on schedule. Proforma, packing list, certifications, and EUDR DDS reference gathered in one place, ready for your records or your own buyer.

Claims handled end-to-end
If something is off on arrival, we own it with the sawmill directly — you stay in one conversation.
5

A partnership that gets smarter

Faster quotes on your repeat products, personalised recommendations, and better forecasts. The more you use the platform, the better it works for you.

Flexible payment terms
Starting at 30 days, extendable to 90 after a simple credit check. Predictable as the relationship deepens.

FAQ

Got a question? We probably answered it.

Common questions about how Timberhub works, for buyers new to the platform.

Who is Timberhub, and why should I trust you?
We are a European timber trading company, not a software vendor. We trade physical timber every day across a vetted network of 70+ sawmills, and we built the platform because the existing tooling did not match how the industry actually works.
How are your suppliers selected?
Every sawmill is vetted in person before joining the network. We assess grading consistency, production stability, certification (FSC or PEFC), EUDR workflow, and working conditions. A trial order validates execution before scale-up.
What does it cost to use Timberhub?
There is no cost to request a quote or use the platform as a buyer. Our margin is built into the delivered price of the timber (the same way any trading company works) and is always transparent when you ask.
How fast can I get a quote?
Standard dimensions: instant, via the live product catalogue. Custom specifications: up to a day, curated by your dedicated trader across the relevant part of the network.
Do you handle EUDR compliance?
Yes: geolocation data collection from suppliers, DDS filing via TRACES, and audit-ready evidence on every order. See our EUDR solution for the full workflow.
