Shipping out some product!

Here is a great shot taken yesterday in Newark at the sawmill. This is a load of truck dunnage that CitiLog cut from upcycled urban logs. Dunnage is used on trucks to secure the load they are transporting. In this one shipment we sent out, there are about 500 boards that are 4"x6"x8'.

Another Site Visit!

Yesterday, one of our CitiLog craftsmen came to the sawmill to pick out some beautiful logs for future projects. The weather was gorgeous and we had a great time! For the few hours we were there, we saw three loads of logs get dropped off. It is hard to believe, with such little room left, our piles are still growing!

Woodworkers are king of the hill!

A Visit from Prudential

Today, we were lucky enough to have Cindy Hu from Prudential visit the Newark sawmill and see the saw running! This is a very exciting and pivotal event in CitiLog's journey of upcycling urban logs.

Retirement Plaque

Close Up of Laser Engraving 

Custom Retirement Plaque 

CitiLog crafted this retirement plaque from various types of urban wood. A unique Oak burl frames the plaque and gives depth to the piece. Knotted Maple backs the plaque and was laser engraved with a special note for the retiree. A CitiLog craftsman created the custom piece to signify a beautiful natural landscape and the retiree’s time spent in the forest service. The open space between the burl frame and Maple plaque represents the sky and an outline of mountain tops. A tree was carved out of Cherry in the shape of the retiree’s favorite tree species, White Pine. The knot behind the tree signifies the setting sun.

Happy Holidays!

Wishing you a Happy Holiday and a joyous & healthy New Year! - The CitiLog Team
