Local and international timber
Timber species and applications
Local and international timber, the species we work with, and the applications each one suits, laid out for specification and purchasing review.
Local
Regional species for structural and external work
International
Specialized densities and grain for interior and exterior work
Local Timber
Four regional species
Local timber selections cover four regional species adapted for structural and external conditions. Each profile summarizes its typical use.
Species 01
Local Species 01
Suited to structural framing and load-bearing members where consistent strength and predictable drying are required.
Species 02
Local Species 02
Selected for external cladding and exposed applications, with a dimensionally stable profile in outdoor conditions.
Species 03
Local Species 03
Used for general construction and roofing members, supplied in standard sizes for rapid specification.
Species 04
Local Species 04
Chosen for commercial fitouts and joinery where a fine, even grain supports clean finishing.
International Timber
Four specialized species
International species provide specialized densities and grain patterns for interior and exterior work. Each profile notes its primary character.
Species 01
International Species 01
A dense hardwood with a tight grain, selected for furniture and high-wear interior surfaces.
Species 02
International Species 02
Offers a durable profile for exterior decking and outdoor joinery where weather exposure is a concern.
Species 03
International Species 03
Features a pronounced figure suited to decorative interior paneling and feature joinery.
Species 04
International Species 04
A stable, moderately dense species used where dimensional control matters in fitted and structural interiors.
Applications
Timber matched to end use
Different applications call for different timber and dimensions, so the options are laid out plainly by use.
Construction
Heavy construction work draws on both local and international species chosen for load, durability, and availability.
Structural
Structural beams and framing rely on stable, predictable species that hold their dimensions under load.
Furniture
Furniture manufacture uses dense, finish-ready species with fine, even grain for surfaces and joinery.
Roofing
Roofing trusses use dimensionally stable timber sized to the span and load requirements of each structure.
Commercial
Commercial fitouts combine interior-grade species and custom-cut dimensions for consistent, repeatable results.
