At Kirkwood Timber Frame, we are proud to advocate for the latest Structural Timber Guide released by the Structural Timber Association Ltd (STA).

As gold-standard members of the STA, we believe this guide is a vital resource for the UK construction industry. It doesn't just outline technical excellence; it champions timber as the premier solution for sustainable, high-quality, and carbon-neutral housing.

Why does this matter?

✅ Quality assurance: Ensuring every frame meets rigorous safety and performance standards.

✅ Sustainability: Highlighting timber’s role in meeting "Net Zero" targets.

✅ Innovation: Streamlining the design and engineering process for modern builders.

We’re committed to pushing the boundaries of off-site manufacturing, and following the STA’s expert guidance ensures we continue to deliver the best for our customers.

Let’s build smarter, faster, and greener.

More about the guide can be found here: https://lnkd.in/ekqtUV6K

Building with wood is a natural choice and a step towards building a greener future.

The built environment accounts for roughly 25% of the UK’s emissions. To hit our environmental goals, we need a "foundational shift" in how we build, moving away from energy intensive materials and towards low carbon, regenerative resources.

Why does timber frame lead the way in sustainability?

Lowest embodied carbon: Timber has the lowest carbon footprint of any mainstream building material. It’s organic, renewable, and essentially carbon-neutral, even when you factor in transport.

Energy efficient production: Turning timber into a home requires significantly less energy and creates less pollution than masonry. In fact, switching to timber frame can reduce a build's embodied carbon by 20%.

The power of 'carbon sinks': Trees are natural carbon absorbers. For every dry tonne of timber produced, about 1.8 tonnes of CO2 is removed from our atmosphere.

Regenerative forestry: In the European timber industry, sustainability is built-in. For every tree harvested, five more are planted. Because younger trees absorb CO2 faster than older ones, this constant cycle of renewal actually enhances the forest's ability to fight climate change.

Choosing timber frame means choosing a cleaner, greener construction industry. It’s a solution that ticks every box for a sustainable future.

It is time to say a fond farewell to Barbara Massie, as she prepares to embark on a new chapter in her career.

For the last two years Barbara, in her role as Business Development Director, has not only led the sales team in both Scotland and England, but has supported the wider Kirkwood Timber Frame board to help steer the business through some turbulent times. Leveraging over 20 years of construction industry experience to raise the profile of the business within the Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) and timber frame industries.

During her time with us, Barbara also spearheaded our expansion into the English market, securing key contracts, and building lasting partnerships.

Malcolm Thomson, Managing Director at Kirkwood Timber Frame, said: “Myself, the management team and all of Barbara’s colleagues would like to thank her for her unwavering commitment to quality and customer care which has been reflected by our team and her advocacy as a prominent voice for Women in Construction which has inspired many across the sector.

“While we are sad to see her go, we are grateful and proud of everything she has achieved. We know she will be a fantastic asset to her new team, and we look forward to seeing her continue to innovate within the industry. We wish her the very best of luck in her new role.”
