WOODAIM
How we build it

How a project moves through the facility.

From the first email to a crate on a truck. One facility, one team to talk to, three decades of figuring out how to do this properly.

WOODAIM production facility
01

You send us what you have

Drawings, references, a few photos, sometimes just a sketch. We read it, we ask questions, and we tell you honestly whether it’s a project we should be doing together. If anything in the design needs rethinking before we cut wood, we’ll say so now.

02

We build a prototype

Real wood, real finish, real joinery. You see the actual piece before we commit to tooling. We sit with it, you sit with it, and we change whatever isn’t right.

03

Production

Whether it’s six benches or three hundred chairs a year, each project gets its own run on the floor. Same people, same machines, checks at every step. We’re fussy about board selection, because that’s where most quality problems start.

04

Quality control

Every finished piece gets held up against the approved prototype. Structure, finish, dimensions, the way the grain lands. If something isn’t right, it doesn’t ship. We’d rather make it again than send it out and hope.

05

Getting it to you

Custom crating built for international freight. We handle the logistics and the customs paperwork. If you need someone on site for the install, we’ll be there.

The wood

Two woods, both Lithuanian.

Lithuanian Oak

Lithuanian Ash

Lithuanian Ash

  • · From Lithuanian forests
  • · Natural oil finish
What we do, what we coordinate

The stuff we build, and the stuff we organise.

Solid oak and ash is what we produce in-house. Everything else a project needs, the upholstery, metalwork, stone, hardware, the install, we coordinate through partners we’ve worked with for years. You still only have one team to call.

Working oak and ash

Modern machines, but we still pay attention to the board. It’s the part most people skip.

Finishing by hand

Natural oils, sometimes hardwax, occasional light stain. Almost always applied by hand.

One-offs and sculptural pieces

A single bench, a strange table, a sculptural counter. We prototype and build it in-house.

Repeat batches for brands

50 to 500 of the same piece a year, under your name, year after year. The hundredth one should look like the first.

Sourcing the rest

Upholstery, metal, stone, hardware. We coordinate it through partners we’ve worked with for years.

Crating and shipping

Custom crates and freight arranged. We’ve shipped to Norway, Denmark, the UK, all over.
