Merensky Employee Directory

Merensky supplies Pine and Eucalyptus timber to South African, African and international markets. With a total of over 65 000 hectares across South Africa, our plantations are among the largest privately-managed plantations on a saw-log rotation in South Africa. Lumber is processed at our own sawmills and supplied directly or from depots located in... Johannesburg, Pietermaritzburg and Cape Town. Merensky is recognised as the pioneer of commercially-grown sawlog-rotation Eucalyptus, with many decades of continuous genetic improvements resulting in world-class lumber. Sawlog-plantation Eucalyptus is a sustainable alternative to dwindling tropical hardwood supply. Kiln-dried hardwood lumber is produced at Merenskys Northern Timbers sawmill in Tzaneen, for use mainly in joinery and furniture manufacture. Merenskys softwood processing operation, Singisi Forest Products, comprises three sawmills strategically located in KwaZulu-Natal and the Eastern Cape. These mills produce quality sawn and kiln-dried Pine lumber for construction, furniture, joinery and other uses. All structural lumber is graded in accordance with South African National Standards (SANS). A world-class optimising drymill has been established at the Kliprivier business park close to Alberton in Gauteng. The facility has specialised equipment that non-destructively grades structural lumber to required specifications and has the ability to produce finger-joint lumber in any lengths. All Merensky-grown lumber carries the prestigious Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) certification.
