Duffield Timber

Duffield Timber is a family owned timber importer based in Ripon, North Yorkshire. We proudly boast over 50 years of trading and the continuing involvement of 3 generations of the Duffield family. We are situated on a 7 acre site close to the national motorway system and offer prompt delivery on our own lorries.

Our trading philosophy is based on traditional values coupled with innovation and investment in people. The maxim that if you ‘buy right’ you can ‘sell right’ is as true today as when it was first adopted, by our founder Robert Duffield, over 50 years ago. Quality, value and sustainability are the watchwords of our purchasing practice and many miles are travelled and potential vendors evaluated before we make any purchase. The re-investment at Duffield’s is second to none in our industry. Modern sheds, handling equipment, mill machinery, computing systems and lorries and motivated trained staff are all testament to the hard work over the past decades.

As with any successful company we are for ever looking to the future, not only for the timber importing arm but also with the introduction of our sister company Duffield Wood Pellets. Two years of hard work, and a £2m investment, has provided a state of the art fuel pellet factory , enabling us to serve ever growing demand for sustainable energy in both Yorkshire and further afield.

Duffield Timber is an equal opportunity employer committed to the environment, sustainability and our future place in the timber industry.
