A High-Performance Product
Timber continues to be one of the world’s most popular and most sustainable building materials due to its strength, durability, natural beauty and carbon sequestration properties. All our timber is sustainably cut to Australian standards complying with the Queensland Vegetation Management Act.
Timber has number of unique benefits, including:
Strength Performance: Hardwood timber is highly valued for its strength to weight ratio, durability and dimensional stability, making it an ideal construction material.
Acoustic Performance: Timber performs strongly in the acoustic arena - whether the objective is to enhance or reduce sound, thanks to its network of small interlocking wood cells which convert sound.
Thermal Performance: When considering thermal benefits, timber is a fantastic choice. It is a naturally insulating material and can save you money on energy bills!
Fire Performance: While timber is indeed a combustible material, in construction, it has significant insulating properties and burns in a slow, predictable and measurable way. Spotted gum is considered a bush fire resistant timber and up to and including BAL_29.

FAQ
Which timbers suit civil construction?
Civil projects often rely on dense hardwoods like ironbark, spotted gum, and blue gum because they’re naturally strong and long-lasting. These species are well-suited to demanding applications such as retaining walls, bridges, and heavy structural beams. Their proven durability makes them a reliable choice when performance, safety, and long-term stability are essential.
What makes hardwood ideal for big jobs?
Hardwood supplies offer density, durability, and natural resistance to wear, pests, and decay. These properties are crucial in large-scale civil projects where materials face heavy loads and environmental exposure. By choosing hardwood, contractors reduce the risk of early failures, limit replacement costs, and ensure structures perform reliably under pressure for decades to come.
How do contractors choose the right timber?
Selecting timber for infrastructure requires considering durability, strength, and exposure. Hardwood species provide high load-bearing capacity and resilience against weathering, making them excellent options. Factoring in the project’s environment early on helps avoid delays, ensures compliance with safety standards, and keeps budgets on track.
