What NeoTimber does

NeoTimber is a UK-headquartered supplier of wood-alternative building materials, founded in 2008 and operating from a 65,000 sq ft central warehouse in Coalville, Leicestershire. The company's core offering is composite decking manufactured from FSC 100% certified wood fibres combined with recycled plastics, available in Classic (uncapped) and Deluxe (capped) ranges with hollow, solid, and wide profiles. Adjacent categories include composite cladding in three profiles, composite fencing, composite and aluminium balustrades, composite and recycled-plastic outdoor furniture, subframe systems, fixings and trims, and LED lighting accessories. The aluminium decking line carries an A2 fl-s1 fire rating under EN 13501-1 with Qualicoat powder-coating, addressing regulated balcony, terrace, and multi-storey applications.

Revenue is generated almost entirely through one-time unit-priced hardware sales, with composite boards starting at £19 and aluminium boards at £65-£80, plus trade pricing tiers accessed through a Professionals Hub. The go-to-market combines a direct-to-consumer e-commerce storefront with calculators, free samples, and a newsletter; a dedicated trade channel covering landscapers, contractors, architects, and specifiers; and an approved UK installer network paired with a consumer-facing Find-an-Installer service. Target segments split between residential UK homeowners seeking low-maintenance outdoor improvements and commercial/development projects — hospitality, corporate offices, holiday parks, and public sector — where fire compliance and durability are procurement drivers. Limited company to 11-50 employees with no disclosed revenue, funding rounds, or institutional ownership.
