Who We Are
Our business model is simple. We are craftsmen and makers, dedicated to providing quality exotic materials to others who express themselves through their creations. We want to use our experience and expertise to help make those creations unique and unforgettable.
We will never buy or sell material of questionable quality or provenance, and will always strive to improve our means and methods of procurement.
We aim to prove we’re the best and most affordable source of Costa Rican hardwoods in all of North Texas, show through our craft that the beauty of natural materials will never go out of style, and will continue to tell a story for future generations.
Ethically
Sourced
Illegal logging in rainforests is a huge problem in Central and South America. That’s not something we want to perpetuate. Our suppliers only harvest dead or downed timber from the types of wood which are not endangered.
Sustainably
Produced
The power for our suppliers kilns is provided by boilers fueled with scrap from the sawmill. Combined with the fact that Costa Rica gets 90% of its power from hydroelectric sources, our suppliers have a closed loop, sustainable system.
Craftsman
Curated
From our home base in North Texas, we curate a collection of slabs from the thousands available to find the most unique and unforgettable selections of wood species, grains, and sizes Costa Rica has to offer.
Heirloom
Pieces
The beauty of natural materials, combined with responsible sourcing, means Avery Hardwoods can find you the pieces for your home which will be passed down for generations to come.
Our Work
Avery Hardwoods slabs are kiln dried to 5-9% moisture content, and sanded to 120 grit on both sides before they are shipped to us. Most of our pieces have also had cracks and inclusions filled with epoxy. We leave some pieces natural for our customers who may want to do epoxy work themselves.
All our slabs are 70-80% finished when we sell them, making it easier for you to complete your projects and save time in the process.
