Macrocarpa is timber and therefore susceptible to movement. Checking and shake are terms used to describe the natural cracking that occurs in the timber. It is important to understand that they are simply part of the nature of the timber product and make each piece unique. To prolong the life of your furniture please follow the care instructions on our website.

Furniture made properly

Benchmark Build Macrocarpa furniture is made in Mangawhai with a practical focus on strength, good materials and careful finishing. Each piece is made to order rather than mass-produced, with solid construction designed to stand up to everyday use for years to come.

Solid construction

With a qualified builder behind the design and construction, each table, bench seat and outdoor lounge is made to feel solid and stable, using robust building methods rather than lightweight mass-produced construction.

Made to order

Every piece of Macrocarpa furniture is made to order, so the natural grain and character of the timber can be worked with rather than hidden. Most pieces are typically completed within around 1 to 1.5 weeks, although lead times can be longer during busy periods. Once your furniture is ready, delivery can be arranged anywhere in New Zealand.

Care in the details

From smooth edges and sturdy joints to the final finish, close attention is paid to the details that make furniture feel good to use and help it stand up well over time. For advice on keeping your Macrocarpa furniture looking its best, see our Macrocarpa furniture care guide.

What our customers say

  • 2.7 metre Macrocarpa outdoor dining table with matching benches in a high-wind outdoor area.

    We live in a high wind zone and we lost our last outdoor table in the recent winds. Our new 2.7m table and benches just arrived and we're absolutely stoked with them. The quality of the workmanship is evident, and Duncan was a pleasure to deal with throughout. Can't wait to enjoy the summer days and nights outside now!

    — Rob Sewell

  • Custom Macrocarpa indoor dining table with built-in storage made for a tiny house.

    Duncan made us a custom indoor dining table with a storage cubby for our tiny house and we LOVE it. He was great to work with: flexible and helpful. He completed the project in half the time he said he would and delivered it to our rural location. The table is beautiful, sturdy, functional and affordable. Thanks Duncan! We recommend!

    — Emily and Jonathan Catmur
