Timber species & suppliers at your fingertips with new WoodSolutions app

SpeciesSolutions will be an update to the previous WoodSolutions Species app, keeping the original informative content but improving functionality and adding an easily navigable interface.

While the original version helped users to match timber species to their best suited applications (e.g. Victorian Ash for interior applications like flooring and cupboards), the updated app will also provide details of suppliers.

Using inappropriate species is major cause of reduced shelf life for timber products. By suggesting a range of appropriate species for applications, SpeciesSolutions can help to overcome this issue, as well as issues like lack of availability, long lead times and cost blow outs. This makes it a first port of call for anybody beginning a project that uses wood and wood products.

The app will be available to download for free on the Apple App Store and Google Play.

Ahead of the app’s release, suppliers who would like to join our supplier database of more than 450 companies can apply for a listing on the WoodSolutions website. Listings are free for companies that specialise in wood products. Your listing is a great way to increase your customer base.
