Timber Grades

From Victorian eucalypt species Victorian Ash emanates Natural Feature Hardwoods.

Victoria's forests are often subject to extreme climatic conditions - droughts, bush fires, floods, wild storms; these NATURAL events are captured forever in Natural Feature hardwood timber.

Cut and grade of timber
Select grade, quarter sawn material is the most commonly sought timber, however crown cut and natural feature grade are also available upon request.
