Over the last 6 months Glasgow Wood Recycling has been busy providing over 30 local schools and community groups with affordable reclaimed wood products. Across the city people have been working hard to transform play grounds and neglected green spaces into thriving growing areas.

Schools taking part in the Eco Schools programme have been supplied with locally reclaimed barrel planters, seating, raised beds and bird boxes. We have even provided Mount Vernon Primary school with an out door class room. The kids of Laurieston Primary School created an excellant wild flower planting area (above), boosting the biodiversity of their school grounds.

All schools and community groups qualify for a 15% discount on reclaimed wood products across the range. Download our catalogue for more information on these services. 

We are thrilled to be developing our new wood recycling retail yard in Partick, at the back of Kelvinhall underground station. With help from our volunteers and students from Glasgow School of Art's Product Design department, our first open day took place Sat 1st November.

Memebers of the local community were given the opportunity to see plans of the site, courtesy of Collective Architecture, plant out hanging baskets and take a look at the student's work which included a selection of wood land creatures (made out of reclaimed ply board) display units (constructed from pallets and reclaimed CLS and even some fantastic new signage.

We will be developing the site over the next few months. There are loads of opportunities to get involved and help us turn this former bit of wasteland into the dear green place
