Where reclaimed timber comes from
Our main sourcing regions are East Kalimantan and Central Java. Reclaimed timber is recovered from dismantled buildings and structures, then physically inspected, sorted and prepared at our lumberyard in Saba; as salvaged wood, it carries no harvest certification, though origin photos accompany arrivals where available.
When a project needs certified new or plantation-grown wood, we can also supply SVLK-verified or FSC-certified timber on request as a separate pathway. Learn more in About Kitaru, our Environmental policy and our FAQ.
