The Workshop
Materials
As you would expect from Kestrel, we work with only the very best materials. This is why we only use oak, ash, maple, walnut and cherry; woods of the highest quality, responsibly sourced to have minimal impact on the environment. We are committed to ethical trading and adopt a strict ‘Responsible Purchasing Policy’, to ensure that all the timbers we use are from legal origin and sustainable sources. This means you can be assured that every piece of wood used in your project comes from a well-managed forest. Kestrel is also the region’s founding member of the Kitchen Bathroom Bedroom Specialists Association (KBSA), whose members are dedicated to upholding the Association’s high standards of design, supply, installation and customer service. As the region’s only truly bespoke manufacturer of kitchens, as well as bedroom, bathroom and home office furniture, we never compromise on quality.
