Now we are in March 2012, it is rapidly coming up to the 21st anniversary of the founding of Technology For Timber; which happened on 31st March 1991. Since that date, the practice has evolved from a Sole Trader, via a Partnership, to a fully Limited Company - and now a change of Trading Name, to "TFT Woodexperts".
We have also recently moved offices, to cope with our expanded personnel - we now have a structural engineer on staff, as well as qualified Wood Scientists and Certification Auditors. We are still based in Ripon; but if you click onto our website, you can see that we undertake work in all parts of the world - not just Yorkshire! Have a look at some of our interesting Case Studies, to get a flavour of the sorts of projects we get involved in.
The work of TFT Woodexperts is always varied, but it always involves wood, in some shape or form: or the things which go towards making wood do its job better - such as training or 3rd-party Certification of wood-based products. We also undertake Expert Witness investigations and produce Reports to help resolve disputes where wood-based products have been the subject of litigation. But I have one very strong philosophy in life: "It is NEVER the fault of the Wood!"
Jim Coulson - Director, TFT Woodexperts
