australian cypress timber

AUSTRALIAN CYPRESS PINE

Australian cypress pine species (sp. callitris glauca): Australian cypress is a conifer native to the eastern states of Australia. The distribution of Australian cypress is mostly in inland New South Wales and Southern Queensland. Australian cypress is logged on a sustainable basis as part of the Australian Government's Australian Farm Forestry Program.

Australian cypress wood: Australian cypress is predominantly golden. However, variations in Australian cypress color range from cream colored sapwood and yellow-gold to brown heartwood. Australian cypress has closed and tight grain with large and small knots.

Australian cypress markets: The visual appeal of Australian cypress, its durability, density, nail holding ability, and termite resistance have made Australian cypress an attractive product in international markets, especially for flooring, feature finishes, and cabinetry.

Australian cypress sourcing issues: Moxon Timbers sources its Australian Cypress Pine from sustainably managed forestry farms.

teak timber

TEAK

Teak species (sp. tectona grandis): Burma teak, Indian teak, and South East Asian teak - including Thai teak and Indonesian teak, are native to their region. East African teak, West African teak, and Carribean teak are introduced species.

Teak wood: Burmese/Burma Teak is sought after for its uniform golden brown coloration. Greater variations in teak color and grain in teak from other areas of the globe have ensured that the demand for Burmese teak remains high. Teak is a hard, medium density wood that is acid and fire resistant.

Teak markets: Teak is used extensively for shipbuilding, boat-building, cabinet making, joinery, flooring and furniture. Teak laboratory fittings and teak laboratory accessories are a logical choice due to the acid resistant properties of teak.

Teak sourcing issues: Sourcing teak involves complex political, social, environmental, and market issues well documented by the industry. Moxon Timbers sources its teak - particularly its Burmese/Burma Teak - through a long-standing family associate who has a personal background in, and respect for, these complex issues regarding teak harvesting.

 

jarrah timber

JARRAH

Jarrah species (sp. eucalyptus marginata): Jarrah grows in Western and South Western Australia.

Jarrah wood: Jarrah is a rich, reddish timber and it is prized for its rich warm color. Jarrah is heavy and hard. Jarrah grain is usually straight, even textured, sometimes displays decorative flecks on flat sawn surfaces. However, other variations in Jarrah grain may be present. Jarrah is extremely durable and resistant to insect attack, making Jarrah viable for indoor and outdoor uses.

Jarrah markets: Jarrah has a variety of uses including in marine work, ship building, construction, weatherboard, flooring, and furniture. Jarrah has properties that are appropriate for chemical vats and filter presses.

Jarrah sourcing issues: Jarrah is sustainably managed by the Australian government's program for Jarrah sustained-yield management program.
