At Kaltimber, sustainability is more than a buzzword—it’s the very foundation of our business. As a family-owned enterprise established in 2009, we are dedicated to promoting recycled and eco-friendly timbers as sustainable alternatives to natural forest woods.
Our passion for responsible resource management is deeply embedded in every facet of our operations, from ethical sourcing to environmental stewardship.
A Commitment to Eco-Friendly Innovation
We specialize in sourcing and supplying high-grade structural and architectural timbers from Kalimantan for building projects worldwide. What sets us apart is our focus on reclaimed, exterior-grade, and termite-resistant timbers, carefully salvaged from decommissioned structures such as warehouses, jetties, and water towers. Each piece of timber is meticulously dismantled and remilled, transforming it into a beautiful, durable product that not only boasts rich character but is also designed to last for generations.
Environmental, Social, and Economic Sustainability
Our commitment to sustainability goes beyond the materials we supply. At Kaltimber, we strive to create a business model that is environmentally sound, socially responsible, and economically viable. Our goals include:
- Building a sustainable business: We are devoted to establishing a thriving enterprise that supports family values and serves as a platform for lifelong learning and growth.
- Setting new standards: We aim to become a model supplier in Indonesia's environmental construction and design sector, influencing design standards toward greater ecological friendliness.
- Customer satisfaction: We are dedicated to attracting and retaining a happy and satisfied customer base by delivering products that embody sustainability and superior quality.
Core Principles and Environmental Policy
Central to our operations are key principles that ensure we respect and sustain our environment, community, and culture. We embrace a lifestyle centered around the innovative use of reclaimed materials, low-impact products, and minimal waste generation. Some of our core practices include:
- Wise Use of Natural Resources: We design our products to minimize waste and highlight the inherent beauty and history of reclaimed timber.
- Waste Reduction: By collaborating with designers, artisans, and waste recyclers, we actively recycle, reuse, and upcycle materials, giving them new life in useful and aesthetically pleasing products.
- Ethical Sourcing and Transparency: We practice ethical sourcing with full transparency, ensuring that our procurement processes are free of negative impacts on communities and the environment. Our commitment to disclosure guarantees that customers know exactly where their purchases originate.
- Community Building: We support low-impact, local community-based businesses, respecting cultural traditions and fostering partnerships with like-minded enterprises.
- Longevity of Products: The natural termite resistance and aged character of our reclaimed woods ensure that our products endure, preserving their beauty and utility for generations.
Operational Initiatives for Continuous Improvement
