WHY GO WAY OVER HERE FOR SUSTAINABLE HARDWOOD
WHEN WE HAVE IT RIGHT HERE?
Local. Trusted. Loved.
Tasmania has over 800,000 hectares of sustainable production forest, of which only 1% is harvested annually.
Our sustainable hardwood forestry is thriving and our supply chain has a long-term future.
We have sustainable Tasmanian Oak, available to architects, specifiers, joiners and manufacturers who demand the most beautiful, workable hardwood timber and would prefer it came from a local, trusted source. So, there’s no need to look further than Australia if Australian hardwood is what you want.
Real Voices. Real Impact
Tasmania’s forests are among the most carefully managed in the world — but don’t take our word for it. We spoke directly with the architects, designers, researchers, and forest professionals who live and breathe sustainable timber. These are the voices shaping policy, practice, and design in Tasmania and beyond.
Wattle Bird House
Winner of the 2023 Tasmanian Emerging Architect Prize, architect Scott Flett from Flett Architecture is making waves amongst Australia’s architecture and design community. His latest project, Wattle Bird House, has also been on the receiving end of numerous awards for its innovative design and casually luxurious feel.
Supply security until 2040
Australia’s most loved and affordable hardwood is here to stay. Eucalypts are quintessentially Australian. They have quite literally built our nation. With the closure of the Victorian timber industry, there has understandably been fear that other states would follow, but Australia’s most loved hardwood, Tasmanian Oak, is here to stay.
Tasmanian Blackwood in luxury lodge
Celebrated around the world as the pioneer of experiential luxury in Australia, the new iteration of Southern Ocean Lodge chose Tasmanian Blackwood as the hero material of their interiors.
Species
Tasmanian Oak
Tasmanian Oak is the preferred hardwood for a wide range of applications; scantlings, panelling, flooring, glulam spans, veneers, plywood, furniture. Fibre for reconstituted board and the production of high-quality paper.
Blackwood
Blackwood is the perfect timber for fine furniture, joinery or a feature floor, radiating a subtle beauty that makes it irresistible to designers. High-quality veneers are used in joinery, cabinet-making and feature panelling.
Celery Top Pine
A durable and tough timber that provides a hard-wearing surface for flooring and an attractive fine-grained appearance with feature knots and figure for a beautifully unique character in furniture.
Quality Assurance
The Tasmanian Timber Quality Assurance Program assesses nominated products for Australian Standards compliance through a quarterly mill audit. Buyers can trust that the guaranteed products from our suppliers come from a company that employs sustainable practices, holds Chain-of-Custody, and Responsible Wood accreditation.
