About Abodo

The Future of Wood

Abodo crafts timbers with lasting beauty that are safe for people and the environment.

Many exterior timbers are harvested from unsustainable old growth forests or are treated with harmful chemicals. Our timbers stand the test of time, they are beautiful, durable and rapidly renewable.

Formed in 2001 by the Gudsell family, Abodo remains a New Zealand-owned, family business with a purpose.

Lifetime beauty: Abodo timbers are crafted to be enjoyed for years to come. Designed to age with grace, our timbers have exceptional weatherability and maintain their durability and beauty for a lifetime.

With tomorrow in mind:
Our timbers are harvested from New Zealand’s FSC® certified rapidly renewable plantation forests. They are ethically crafted with respect from beginning to end – allowing us to meet today’s increasing needs without disadvantaging future generations.

Featured project

Waihi Beach House

Located just a few surfboard-lengths from Waihi beach, this contemporary bach offers the summer months to be enjoyed outdoors. With stadium-style stairs to the lawn and a covered barbecue area, the substantial decking truly extends the entertaining space beyond the walls of the home.

Featured designer

Felicity Brenchley

Using an array of natural finishes and materials, architect Felicity Brenchley’s own coastal home in Mahurangi is designed with sustainability in mind.

Colours had to be dark with glazing recessed below eaves to reduce reflectivity from the marine reserve. This informed the design from the outset, as did our aim to use, durable and sustainable materials such as Abodo."
