Our story

A family legacy with eyes on the future


The natural choice for those seeking excellence in flooring and decking made from certified exotic hardwoods.

Seven Woods is more than a timber company. We are the bridge between the richness of Brazil's sustainable forests and the forefront of European construction. We were born from a passion for wood and the desire to offer the Portuguese and international markets high-value solutions that combine the natural beauty of exotic hardwoods with the most rigorous engineering.

The story of Seven Woods is the story of a passion that crosses the Atlantic. The company was born from the vision of an entrepreneur who decided to bring to Europe a legacy of more than 40 years of family tradition in the Brazilian timber sector. Headquartered in Sever do Vouga, Portugal, Seven Woods is a direct subsidiary of an organisation that, in Brazil, works in close collaboration with state forest concessions, building deep know-how in the processing of high-density tropical hardwoods.

This direct link to the parent company gives us privileged access to certified exotic raw materials, as well as solid technical knowledge built up over decades. Combining this heritage with our team's expertise in timber engineering, industrial management and international trade, we offer products of excellence, backed by a transparent, traceable and responsible value chain.

Our commitment is twofold: to sustainability and to quality. We specialise in the production of floating floors, solid floors and high value-added outdoor decking, manufactured in Portugal from certified exotic hardwoods sourced from legally and responsibly managed forests in Brazil. Every product we create is the result of decades of family experience combined with the most advanced processing technology.

From our origins, in the heart of the Amazon

It all began more than four decades ago, in the interior of Brazil, when a family passionate about wood started working with native species, always respecting the forest and local communities. From generation to generation, knowledge was passed on — from sustainable forest management to the art of turning logs into true works of engineering and design.

Over the years, the family built a reputation for trust, quality and seriousness in the Brazilian timber market, working side by side with environmental agencies and state forest concessions, always within the law and with full traceability. Today, we combine the heritage of the past with the engineering of the future.

More than selling timber, we tell stories that begin in the forest and come to life in every project.
