Charles Ransford & Son Ltd Company Information
General information
Ransfords process around 70,000 tonnes of logs each year at our facility in Bishop’s Castle, Shropshire. The main species used are Douglas Fir, Larch and Spruce, sourced from sustainably managed UK forests. We produce 42,000m3 per annum of sawn timber – 70% of which is derived from the more naturally durable ‘redwoods’.
We have invested more than £10m in this facility in recent years. State of the art German sawing equipment, incorporating 3D laser scanning and optimising technology, combine with sophisticated re-sawing, board recovery and product handling systems to make our process one of the most accurate and efficient operations in the UK.
No part of the log is wasted. A peeling line strips the bark before the log is milled and this is then processed into a range of horticultural products. Sawdust and woodchips, generated from the milling process, are sold into a variety of markets including equestrian surfaces, animal bedding suppliers, chipboard and MDF manufacturing plants and power generating companies.
The service life of sawn timber can be extended by pressure impregnation of preservative. Our pressure timber treatment process uses the latest timber preservatives and the most up to date technology to provide effective protection against rot and decay. Our systems and controls are so good that we are accredited to meet the stringent standards demanded by the Highways Agency.
To enhance the look of the product we offer the preservative treatment in the two most popular colours: green and brown.
We use our own fleet of vehicles supplemented by professional contract transport when required to make timely deliveries throughout the UK and Ireland.
