The merchant, part of Wolseley UK, will supply general carcassing timber to Countryside Properties’ Sadlers Park development at Burslem, Stoke-on-Trent, where 300 houses and apartments are being built.
Three Build Center branches in Stoke were among the recent outlets to secure Forest Stewardship Council and Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification schemes chain of custody certification. The merchant now has 61 certified branches.
Jermain Cheetham, Wolseley’s national chain of custody co-ordinator, said the certification programme was essential to satisfy the environmental requirements of Build Center customers. “We aim to have the whole Build Center timber network certified by 2008,” he said.
