Muir Timber Systems completes delivery of timber kits for 24 affordable homes in Plean

Muir Timber Systems has completed the delivery of timber kits for 24 affordable homes in the village of Plean, including two wheelchair-accessible bungalows, on behalf of Stirling Council. 

The company is responsible for the delivery and installation of timber kits on-site as part of an ongoing £420,000 contract with Carmichael Homes.

This project marks the latest milestone in the ongoing partnership between Muir Timber Systems and Glasgow-based homebuilder Carmichael Homes, renowned for delivering high-quality housing across Scotland. Building on the successful 2024 collaboration at the former Rosslynlee Hospital site in Penicuik, this latest development further reinforces the company’s dedication to excellence and sustainability.



Gary Gray, general manager of Muir Timber Systems, said: “It’s been fantastic to continue our partnership with Carmichael Homes on another significant housing project, bringing much-needed, high-quality homes to Stirlingshire. 

“Our high-quality, sustainably sourced timber kits provide an efficient and environmentally responsible solution for modern homebuilding. This project reflects our shared commitment to creating well-designed, energy-efficient homes that benefit both residents and the wider community.”

Scott Carmichael, managing director of Carmichael Homes, added: “We’re delighted to continue our collaboration with Muir Timber Systems on this important affordable housing project in Plean. Their commitment to quality, sustainability, and innovation has been invaluable as we work together to deliver homes that truly meet the needs of the community. 

“By using sustainable timber kits manufactured, we’re reducing carbon emissions and ensuring these homes are built to stand the test of time. It’s another proud milestone in our partnership with Muir Timber Systems, and we’re excited to see the impact these homes will have on the local community.”



Part of the family-run Muir Group, Muir Timber Systems was founded in 1975 to supply timber products to its sister companies, Muir Construction and Muir Homes. Today, it serves a broad range of contractors and house builders, delivering high-quality timber solutions from its state-of-the-art factory in Inverkeithing.

The timber kits for this project are crafted using sustainable materials and are produced with energy drawn from the factory’s solar array, underscoring Muir Timber Systems’ commitment to environmental responsibility and sustainability.
