Jarrah Flooring

Jarrah (Eucalyptus marginata) is a timber that has been widely used for flooring, panelling, outdoor furniture and cabinet making.  Its rot and termite resistance have also seen it used in a variety of outdoor situations such as fencing, bridges, wharves and power-poles.

Jarrah is a timber that is ideal for T & G Flooring, with an attractive grain and an resilient hardness that will stand up to the test of time.  

DISTRIBUTION
The species grows only in the south west of Western Australia, where all plantations are managed on a sustainable basis. The volume of log harvested annually is controlled by the State Government to ensure continuing supply.

QUALITY STANDARDS AND GENERAL PROPERTIES
Only Prime grade is imported into New Zealand.  This is a good appearance grade, even though it does allow some natural defects such as gum streaks and minor knots.

The timber machines and finishes well and is considered to be a superior flooring timber.
