Hazeldene Boards
The Only Chipboard Factory In KZN
The Lund family settled in Underberg in 1939 on Hazeldene farm. Over the years Hazeldene has grown and diversified with dairy farming, beef farming a sawmill and a tree nursery – which was largely responsible for the beautiful exotic trees which the Underberg / Himeville area is now famous for.
We are a proudly South African company employing 60 locally skilled staff.
We source our raw material from responsibly and sustainably grown local forests.
In 2004, there was the potential for building a chipboard factory to better utilise the timber and waste product from the various sawmills in the area. In 2008 the vision became a reality with the commissioning of the chipboard factory and the establishment of Hazeldene Boards, which is the only chipboard factory in Kwazulu Natal, situated on Hazeldene Farm just outside of Himeville in the Southern Drakensberg.
