There’s a new name behind the local sawmill, but the heart of Bombala’s timber story beats stronger than ever.
Earlier this year, Porta, part of the Australian-owned Borg Group, proudly welcomed the Bombala sawmill into its family.
For more than 17 years, the mill has produced top-quality decking, framing timber and fencing that help build homes and communities across Australia.
Now, with Porta’s passion for craftsmanship, innovation and sustainability, the future of Bombala’s timber industry is looking brighter than ever.
“We’re proud to invest in regional jobs, local partnerships and the community that makes it all possible,” a Porta spokesperson said.
“We are shaping Australia’s timber future, right here in Bombala.”
Porta stands as a testament to more than 90 years of excellence in the Australian timber industry, nurtured under the visionary leadership of John Pizzey and carried forward by five generations of family commitment.
Specialising in high-quality timber products, Porta serves the home improvement, building, trade, and commercial sectors with unmatched craftsmanship and innovation.
The pioneering values and high standards set by John Pizzey continue to inspire Porta.
Porta is more than a key player in Australia’s timber industry; it symbolises a commitment to a sustainable and innovative future.
Porta pledges to uphold and build upon this legacy, embracing the challenges and opportunities it brings.
