Fencing can often mean the need to box in large areas of space. Fences made from recycled and reclaimed materials offer all of the benefits of other fences and more.

• Pine Timber Fences: Timber fences are a classic favourite. Having a classic timber fence doesn't mean cutting down or bushland or forests either. Many companies now have pine timber fences that are sourced from plantation grown timber. So our native hardwood forests are preserved. Also, this type of fence puts little pressure on carbon emissions during all of the different stages of production.
• Reclaimed and recycled fencing solutions: If pine timber fencing isn't what you're after, how about fencing made from wood fibres, recycled plastic grocery bags and sawdust?There are a number of unusual new fencing fibres that combine all of these elements to create great fencing that looks good and is completely eco friendly. What's great about this fencing is that is doesn't contain any toxic chemicals or preservatives.
• Other eco friendly fencing solutions: Recycled plastic and renewable wheatstraw is another great eco friendly material for making quality, durable fencing.
