Triboard is front and centre in a new workshop built by Kiwi Carpentry, who specialise in Carpentry and Joinery in the far north. This family team is a hive of activity in an epic rural setting.

With vast experience in the industry, owners Rob and Andrew Bennie’s new workshop is just down the road from the Juken Triboard factory, thus giving them an experienced understanding of the versatility and quality of Triboard panels, having used the product for decades.

Robs son Andrew has been part of the team for 11 years and now runs the Joinery division, along with Andrew’s partner Catherine joining the ranks and is two years into her apprenticeship. The new workshop has been built to expand the business and employ new staff whilst investing in the far north. All is going to plan, and the specialised team are very busy on multiple residential and commercial renovation and joinery projects.

Rob, Andrew and their team are true advocates of Triboard and will continue to incorporate it in their upcoming designs. The strength, versatility and natural look and feel of Triboard tick all the boxes for them and the team, making it an easy choice in their designs.

Triboard applications in the Kiwi Carpentry workshop are:

  • Internal Linings
  • Work Benches (Bench Tops)
  • Mobile workstations
  • Shelving / Vertical and horizontal
  • Timber racks
  • Doors (sliding and hung)
  • Boxing (36mm triboard offcuts for concrete boxing)

A recent project completed by Kiwi Carpentry is the temporary Covid centre in Kaitaia. Triboard used in this project will be uninstalled and reused for a new project. Triboard 10mm was perfect for wall petitions with a quick, solid install. Image above.

Triboard is a 3-layered panel with a wood strand core sandwiched between an MDF outer “skin”. The result is a clean-lined panel with high resilience, impact resistance, and greater stiffness than similar products. The dimensionally stable core provides superb load-bearing and screw holding, and the MDF surfaces give a smooth finish for painting or overlaying. This innovative combination of smooth surfaces with inner strength makes it ideal for a wide range of internal structural and non-structural applications – panel housing, structural walls, floors, fire-rated doors and inter-tenancy walls, solid core doors, bracing panels, benchtops and shelving. Available in a variety of panel sizes, thicknesses and densities.

About the
Professional

Welcome to Juken New Zealand Ltd (“JNL”). We are a New Zealand (“NZ”) based and registered company with a growing global outreach. We have been heavily involved with the NZ forestry and wood-processing industries for the past 30 years – manufacturing advanced and innovative wood products from selectively planted, managed and harvested Radiata Pine for local and export markets. In that time we have become important economic and cultural contributors to the local communities within which we operate.

In an age where wood is becoming increasingly recognised and re-established as a product of choice for many structural and non-structural applications, we can offer you high quality, fit-for-purpose products to meet your needs.

We have sustainably managed and certified plantation forests in the East Coast and Wairarapa regions of NZ’s North Island. In Wairarapa we have one and in Kaitaia, we have two, efficient and environmentally clean wood processing mills. We employ nearly 460 people and obtain goods and services from several hundred suppliers.

Research and development are important to us, and we also benefit from the technology and resources of our Japan-based parent company WoodOne Ltd, a major international housing materials and componentry company, which has invested over $NZ700 million into our Company and NZ.

All of which means that in an age where wood is becoming increasingly recognised and re-established as a product of choice for many structural and non-structural applications we can offer you high quality, fit-for-purpose products to meet your needs.

 

WHAT WE DO
We make a wide range of engineered wood Laminated Veneer Lumber (LVL), Panels and Solid Wood Products – for structural and non-structural purposes, for external or internal uses, and for appearance or non-appearance finishes.

All of it come from certified forestry we care for and harvest on a sustainable basis to ensure that you receive the very best products for your requirements. If we do not have the right trees we obtain them from other carefully selected sustainable sources. So we are closely involved and “hands-on” all the way through from the tree seed to the finished product. And in a way that is sensitive to the social needs and ecosystems within which we live, work and play.

Our forests are certified and managed according to internationally-recognised environmental standards – FSC®and ISO. They are immaculate. They provide the very best of raw materials to our wood processing mills which are also certified and managed according to international standards – including FSC®, ISO and EWPAA. Through innovative processes and skilled staff, our mills transform our harvested trees into high-quality products – products that are reliable and durable, that perform, and that can
be trusted.

Our range of products is wide and varied, but we are not limited to “off-the-shelf” solutions. If you cannot find what you are looking for in our current range then ask us about custom-made options to suit your exact needs. Such requests fit comfortably with our philosophy, and because we own the process from start to finish we will always try to meet your needs.

It is yet another reason why discerning customers who seek and demand the natural benefits of wood choose Juken New Zealand Ltd for top quality engineered and solid wood products.
