As part of our ongoing commitment to deliver sustainable and carbon friendly schools with the lowest possible impact on the environment we are now members of the Timber Research and Development Association (TRADA).

TRADA is an internationally recognised centre of excellence that concentrates solely on the use of timber as a building material with a history stretching back over 70 years.

We have met all UK Government Sustainability Regulations from day one and with the help of TRADA will continue to stay ahead of the competition and provide a more carbon friendly experience for our clients.

For more information on TRADA visit their website here.

Wood For Good is the UK's wood promotion campaign. This short film highlights some of the recent projects that have embraced the use of timber as a sustainable building material, including a new school with a negative carbon footprint!

Canadian Timber Schools are active members of the Wood for Good campaign - find out more information at the Wood for Good website.

Find out why this method is being chosen time and time again as the preferred option for Sustainable Schools.
