Lightweight and Strong

Enhanced by PureCoatTM technology, Paulownia combines robust strength with inherent light weight making it the go-to material for shutters.

Sustainable & Fast-Growing

A highly renewable resource, Paulownia’s rapid growth rate and close proximity to our production facility makes it one of the most eco-conscious choices.

Excellent Insulation

Paulownia’s natural insulating properties help regulate temperature, offering superb energy efficiency.

“Every Austin shutter tells a story of careful engineering and genuine craftsmanship — it’s why fitters trust them, and customers love them.”

Natural Living, with Sustainable Wood Shutters

Paulownia hardwood is prized for its light colour, fine grain, and distinctive pattern. In Japanese tradition, Paulownia trees are ceremoniously planted after the birth of a daughter, with the mature wood later crafted into furniture for her marital home.

Today, we honour that same respect for nature and craftsmanship. Each Austin shutter begins with sustainably grown Paulownia – responsibly sourced, engineered for lasting performance, and finished with care.
