NEW / Vulcan Joinery – Vertical Grain Timber Now Available

Encouraged by positive feedback from local and international timber joiners, Vulcan Joinery – Vertical Grain joins Abodo’s product range in New Zealand.

Timber joinery has made a comeback in modern homes for its wellness and sustainability benefits that last for generations.

With excellent reviews from joiners in both New Zealand and further afield in the UK, this joinery-specific extension to our product range is created to make it easier to craft more doors and windows using Vulcan timber.

Vulcan timber has been used by local joiners ThermaDura and Dunlop Builders to create a triple glazed curtain wall in a passive office building in Wanaka, to Optimal Windows crafting a beautiful pivot door in a central Auckland bungalow renovation. The natural durability, thermal performance and aesthetic appeal of Vulcan timber makes for beautiful doors and windows.
