Processing only 25-year-old plus renewable plantation trees, Waitete Sawmill's aim is to produce quality products rather than volume. Our products are further enhanced by slow kiln drying

Waitete Sawmills has the reputation for delivering the right grades on time. When you order you deal with key personnel who have a wealth of knowledge and understand your requirements. This ensures our team arrives at the best solution and products whether you have a short run custom order or a bulk order. No matter what size your order is we can cater to your needs. We have an internal culture of treating our staff and customers as valued assets and in many cases friends. As a result we have long-serving staff and long-term customers who retain an extensive knowledge base which translates ultimately into customer satisfaction.

We focus on producing high quality Radiata Pine products milled from pruned logs sourced from sustainable plantations

Waitete Sawmills has a continuing process of Research and Development and has recently invested in leading edge technology, such as the Microtech Golden Eye 301 Scanner and the Log View 3D Scanner / Optimizer. These together with a full gamut of heavy milling processing equipment allow fast accurate processing of premium grade Radiata Pine clear wood timber.

We have 5 Windsor low temperature kilns. Drying Radiata Pine in low temperature kilns produces a better coloured product with less chance of downgrade

Waitete Sawmills purchase only the highest grade renewable plantation logs from trees that are in excessof 25 years old. This ensures our timber has a high density thereby creating a more stable product.

Flexible, adaptable, and specialised in producing premium grade Radiata Pine clear wood timber Waitete Sawmills will fill your order whether you have a short run customer order or a bulk order

We have the ability to process timber from the milling right through to export packaging. This enables you, the customer, to have greater control over your logistics, eliminating additional cartage fees and with one point of contact reduces the mistakes that you may experience when passed from one department to the next in larger companies. Having one point of contact with a wealth of experience and a team that's up to speed with the latest industry technology ensures certainty of quality throughout the entire milling, drying, and packaging processes.

Tenon Manufacturing has been a regular customer of the Waitete sawmill since 2002. Ramish and his team have always provided a consistent supply of quality products to the Taupo Operation.
Their willingness to provide different grades, sizes and lengths (at sometimes short notice) has always been very much appreciated.
We look forward to building on this partnership in the future.
