Timber interiors + fitout

Alexandra-based joinery specialists building bespoke timber interiors — a 33% factory productivity gain after putting Empower on the shop floor.

Bespoke work, honest data

Wedgerwood Joinery builds one-off timber interiors — the kind of work that never repeats, where hours-per-job are impossible to guess and easy to under-quote. Empower makes them measurable.

33% more from the same floor

After the move to Empower, factory productivity lifted 33% — a third more work through the same workshop without adding staff or hours.

Central Otago craftsmanship

From their Alexandra workshop, Wedgerwood delivers bespoke joinery to residential and commercial clients across the region. The data behind the craft keeps every job on the numbers that were quoted.
