The problem
Buying timber online should add up the same way it does at the yard
Construction timber is sold by specification: cross-section, length, timber type and treatment. Buyers need to find the right piece, know how many boards to take for the area they are building, and know which truck will carry long, heavy timber to them.
-
01
Find the right specification quickly
Type "douglas" or "50/150" and matching product names and photos appear at once, with the price.
-
02
Filter by timber type and treatment
Filter by category, color, price range, timber type (chêne, douglas, épicéa...) and treatment.
-
03
Know how many boards to buy
The customer enters the square meters of flooring or wall they need, and the product page calculates the number of boards and an estimated total.
-
04
Make long, heavy deliveries clear
The delivery zone, the type of unloading truck, the timing and how to book a slot are stated clearly before the order is placed.
