About Woodpecker Flooring Woodpecker is a family-run business with a heritage in the timber industry that goes back three generations.
Founded nearly 50 years ago
by Bruce Ker, a skilled craftsman who loved teaching people how to work with wood, the Woodpecker tradition is continued today by his son Nelson and grandson Darwyn. Since the very beginning,
Woodpecker have been passionate about designing and sourcing the finest wooden floors.
Their dedication starts in the
forest. Woodpecker only use responsibly sourced wood with full FSC or PEFC certifications, selecting the trees before they are felled and paying close attention to how they are sawn, stacked and dried. The dry wood is then kilned twice for maximum stability before being machined. Centuries-old hand-finishing techniques - such as lacquering, oiling and antiquing the wood - further enhance its natural beauty.
It’s fair to say, nobody knows
or cares more about wood than Woodpecker. Headquartered in Caerphilly,
Woodpecker currently offer over 100 flooring options in real wood, engineered wood and wood design which retail online and at nationwide stockists.
