<\/p>\nIt\u2019s time to celebrate in the local timber industry with Australian timber products manufacturing business Timberlink\u00ae marking 10 years in business this month. Timberlink CEO Ian Tyson said this was an important moment to reflect on the enormous amount of change and improvement that has happened in their business since February 2013.<\/p>\n
\u201cChange that can only occur when a business has a vision and plan for its future, has an ownership structure and a board that supports this, and then most importantly, has a great team of people who can add to and deliver on that vision and plan,\u201d Mr Tyson said.<\/p>\n
Timberlink was formed in February 2013, following the sale of Gunns Limited\u2019s softwood sawmilling assets, and is a part of an integrated softwood forestry business that is managed by New Forests.<\/p>\n
Mr Tyson has been at the helm of Timberlink since its formation. \u201cThanks to the great support we have had from our customers and through expanding our operations, we have grown as a business, and now proudly employ 600 team members compared to where we started in 2013 at 380. The majority of which are in regional areas,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
This year Timberlink will complete two significant innovation projects: one in mass timber with CLT and GLT, and one with wood-plastic composites. \u201cThese projects will take Timberlink from being primarily a structural timber manufacturer to a structural engineered timber products and solutions business, a remarkable change in ten years,\u201d Mr Tyson said.<\/p>\n
To reflect and support this growth, Timberlink has released a refreshed logo and a newly redeveloped website.<\/p>\n
Timberlink\u2019s new positioning statement reads \u2018a future made better for all\u201d is reflective of its commitment to helping build environmentally friendlier homes and buildings that support the world being a better place for the generations that follow\u2019.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s been a great start and a fantastic ten years, but it\u2019s only the beginning,\u201d Mr Tyson said. \u201cWe will continue to build on what we\u2019ve already done and look forward to our future. There is so much more opportunity for us.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe thank all our customers and suppliers for their support over this journey and we are even more excited about the next 10 years.\u201d<\/p>\n
