Introducing New Growth ™ Feature Timbers, and a bold new look too.
At Abodo, we're transforming timber design with sustainable, innovative rapidly renewable alternatives that supersede old growth.
Abodo exists to create feature timbers that stand for something, a movement toward better forestry practices and sustainable innovation.
To protect ancient, irreplaceable forests, we use purpose-grown, rapidly renewable timber from the best New Growth forestry sources.

Sustainably grown, FSC® certified timber from biodiverse New Zealand Radiata plantations.
Patented Performance:
Heat tempered and precision-crafted for exceptional performance, stability and longevity. Featuring Abodo's distinctive vertical grain.
Natural Beauty:
Honouring the essence of timber - its grain, texture, and connection to the natural world.

Old growth ancient forests are ecosystems that are centuries in the making. This constructive conversation will show how your architectural decisions can help protect what's irreplaceable.
