Wood-Mizer has a long history throughout Australia with active sales and support teams serving customers.

The company offers a complete line of portable and industrial sawmills, resaws, edgers, kilns, log splitters, material handling equipment, bandsaw blades and blade maintenance equipment for forestry and timber professionals.

The company’s longstanding dealer in Victoria, Colin Goldsmith, has been an important part of the company’s commitment to serve the sawmilling industry and timber professionals with equipment and blades.

Customers like Craig and Janelle Yeomans, owners of Whitsunday Timber, located in Cannon Valley, Queensland, shared that their experience with Wood-Mizer has been positive.

“The after sales service has been great and the equipment is fantastic. I have found the Australian distributor to be warm and inclusive. There’s a family feel in the Wood-Mizer community,” Craig said.

Now with a local footprint, Mr Lendrum will support the established and growing dealer network and customers throughout the region.

Wood-Mizer’s continued investment in full-service locations reflects the company’s commitment to sell, support and serve the industry and its professionals.

With professional experience in business management and developing longstanding relationships, Mr Lendrum is looking forward to serving new and familiar contacts throughout the sawmilling industry.

Wood-Mizer Oceania Regional Manager, Conrad Swart, said that with a new Australia office and stocking location for sawmill equipment and blades, he was confident that Wood-Mizer can add to sawmillers’ success throughout Oceania.
