Spotted Gum Timber
Spotted Gum Timber – Unmatched Durability & Striking Natural Beauty
Bold, striking, and built to last, Spotted Gum is one of Australia’s most iconic hardwoods, celebrated for its unique appearance, exceptional durability, and structural versatility. With its distinctive "spotted" grain patterns, rich colour variations (from pale brown to deep reddish-brown), and resistance to fire, termites, and harsh weather, it’s the ideal choice for both structural and decorative applications—indoors and out.
Benefits of Using Spotted Gum Timber
Exceptional Natural Durability: boasts a Class 1 or 2 durability rating, making it highly resistant to termites, rot, and decay, even in harsh weather conditions and in-ground contact.
Outstanding Strength and Hardness: One of Australia's hardest and strongest structural timbers, offering superior load-bearing capacity and resilience against impact and wear.
Stunning Natural Appearance: Renowned for its unique and attractive appearance, featuring a range of colour tones (from light brown to deep red) and a distinctive grain that often includes a "spotted" figure.
