Responsible Sourcing & Environmental Practices
Sourcing, Processing and Environmental Care
Our Approach
Practical Environmental Responsibility
DTM Timber’s environmental practices are based on meeting regulatory requirements, supporting responsible sourcing, and operating in a manner appropriate to the Australian hardwood industry. We focus on practical measures that support sustainable supply rather than broad or unqualified claims.
Our operations are structured to balance production requirements with responsible resource use, ensuring timber is processed efficiently and fit for its intended application.
Responsible Sourcing
Sourcing Australian Hardwood
DTM Timber sources Australian hardwood from approved suppliers and harvesting operations operating under relevant state and national regulatory frameworks. This supports responsible forest management and ensures timber entering our supply chain is legally and appropriately sourced.
Processing and Resource Use
Efficient Processing Practices
Timber processing at DTM Timber is undertaken with a focus on efficiency and material utilisation. This includes appropriate log breakdown, product recovery and preparation methods suited to structural, civil and industrial applications.
By matching timber products to their end use, unnecessary waste and over-processing are minimised.
Certification & Compliance
Standards and Certification Alignment
DTM Timber operates in alignment with recognised certification systems and environmental management practices relevant to Australian hardwood supply. Compliance with applicable regulations and industry standards forms a core part of our operating framework.
