A Brief History
The business originally was founded and owned by Slim & Almut Strecker and known as Timber Treasures. Cabinetmaking was the core business and this moved through phases in industry and then aligned itself to custom made timber furniture, trophies and custom made articles in timber and woodturning. This business was taken over by son Marty Strecker and slowly refocused and evolved as Xylobladz where Marty has combined his background as a cabinetmaker with his love of the water to develop a unique type of canoeing paddle.
We custom make outrigger canoe paddles to feature original designs and options. We have a keen interest in being there to help develop the sport of Outrigger canoeing and train and participate in regional and international events.Outrigger canoeing is the fastest growing water sport in the world and with the limited number of quality producers of the paddle, we are anticipating that our company will grow with it.
We export to mostly to Hawaii, California and USA, Canada, New Zealand, Asia, Pacific islands and Europe.
Xylobladz was the 2003, 2004 and 2006 recipient of the Central Queensland export awards for small to medium manufacturers and have been making paddles since 1986.
Our success goes to show the value in having a business that is built on a quality product and an attitude towards excellent customer service that is built on attention to detail and integrity.
