Specialties

Diggersrest Timber Company is best known for its CCA treated timber and creosote treated timber, produced at its own SATAS accredited treatment facilities. This in-house capability allows them to control quality from raw log to finished product, ensuring that poles and timber meet SANS 457 and SANS 1288 treatment requirements. Customers can choose from CCA treated poles for a clean, greenish finish that can be glued and painted, or creosote treated poles for demanding outdoor and utility applications.

Alongside treated timber, the company operates a fully equipped sawmill that produces A-grade and B-grade pallet material for packaging, shipping, and industrial use. This pallet material is known for its strength, consistency, and suitability for heavy-duty applications. The product range also includes droppers, laths, building and fencing poles, split poles, tomato poles, and other tailored timber items for fencing, agriculture, netting, thatching, and DIY projects.

Diggersrest Timber Company also offers forestry management and harvesting services, providing expert silviculture, felling, and extraction solutions. By managing forests responsibly and making efficient use of by-products through wood chip production, the business supports a more sustainable timber supply chain. This full-circle approach, from forest to finished product, sets them apart from many other building materials and hardware suppliers in the Tzaneen area.
