Bond Timber

Bond Timber are a timber merchant based in Cornwall who since closing their retail store and going fully digital, needed a new website to support this transition and increased demand. Bond Timber supplies timber for construction, gardening and fencing for both trade customers and the general public throughout the South West of England. Bond Timber is a family business that has grown from its agricultural roots to become one of the leading timber processors and suppliers in the South West.

Before approaching Chilliapple, Bond Timber had a Magento 2 site that allowed customers to place orders. As Bond Timber was successfully scaling its business within the industry, it was time to expand its digital online presence and move onto a platform that would support offline functionality, as this would serve its customers in remote areas in the timber trade. Taking this all into account, chilliapple suggested for Bond Timber to migrate onto a Progressive Web Application (PWA) to make use of a light framework that provides users with enhanced speed and access to the web app with little or no internet connection and is more affordable than the creation of a traditional mobile app.
