Whittlesea Sawmill Pty Ltd was established in 1948 by the late Jack Lord. The Mill is now owned by Jack's son and daughter-in-law Len and Pauline Lord. Len has been involved in all aspects of sawmilling for the past 47 years.

The mill has seen many changes, but since 1993 it has undergone it’s most dramatic updates.   Len decided his future in Whittlesea Sawmill along with the boys had to have a sound direction. This required installing a Grey Bench and more recently a kiln. The mill is looking forward to a strong future especially with the dry timber now being produced, and with the fourth generation already showing interest who knows how long we will remain in Whittlesea.


Over the years we have been constantly been evolving into where we are today: experts in processing Victorian Hardwood. From the time the logs enter the front gates we track their progress. Every step is checked to make sure we get the most out of each log. Our kiln drying techniques are second to none which guarantees the product you get is of the highest quality possible.
