Pentland furniture company is a family business established in 1996 by Nick and Janet Dear as a small manufacturer supplying to retail outlets from Queensland to Tasmania.

There have been many changes to the industry since these fledgling days, significantly the demise of a lot of the Australian furniture manufacturing industry along with the growth of imported furniture made from Australasian furniture.

Throughout this challenging time and with our desire to keep bringing Australians locally made quality Australian timber furniture, diversification has been the key, in both range and more recently making one off personalised pieces.

Entering the area of chair making forms a large part of this, with chairs now being one of our flagship products. Arguably one of the more challenging and difficult products to make we worked at producing a real quality product and now offer a range of chairs at affordable prices.
 


The faces of Pentland Furniture, Nick Janet & Lachlan Dear

With the mainstream marketplace now mainly structured so that people have to find a piece of furniture and make it fit their space, rather than for 'custom-made' furniture designed to suit the application. We have now developed our business to meet this market need and produce furniture made to your requirements, after all you know what is needed and the space you are going to fill.

Our displayed range therefore is here to inspire and our role in the product choice and design is with guiding the timber selection and elements of the design for the practical requirements of strength and longevity

This process and having the design choices is often considered the more expensive option but by dealing directly with us as the manufacturer this is certainly not so.

When dealing with retailers custom made creates many challenges and thus price increases. By dealing direct these are all removed and your special needs easily catered for. The people you are discussing the requirements with are also the ones who will be making your items, significantly simplifying the process and thus costs involved.

Caring for the environment

Our other focus as a company is conservation, please click here to have a look at our personal sawmill and how we make use of fallen trees, and those being removed for safety and other similar reasons to make your furniture, rather than taking them from forests or other environmentally irresponsible methods of timber collection.  Our Sawmill & the environment
