R.A Woodcraft: “craftmanship | integrity | sustainability”
At the head of the team founder, Rudolf Zuidema, has over two decades of woodworking experience.
He is classically trained and a fully qualified joiner/wood machinist, but above all else he has an infectious passion for innovation.
Rudolf has represented South Africa at the World Skills Olympics in Joinery where he finished in the Top 10.
During his training he spent time training under a British master joiner, refining his skills and learning traditional joinery techniques.
Investment into state of the art German machines and the very best tools has enabled the team at R.A. Woodcraft’s craftsmanship and skills to shine.
Rudolf’s moto is craftmanship, integrity and sustainability and this embodied by all who work at R.A. Woodcraft.
r.a.w: “Making life just that little more special and lovely”
r.a.w has grown from R.A. Woodcraft spear headed by Rudolf’s wife, Jana.
Her vision is to create a lifestyle brand of bespoke wood products that make life just that little more special and lovely.
Using the skills of Rudolf and his team the r.a.w products are of top quality and craftmanship using top grade wood and finishes that are synonymous with the R.A Woodcraft brand.
