Pine Framing Timber
Trusted by Builders – Premium Pine Framing Timber for Structural Integrity
Advantages of Pine Framing Timber
High Strength-to-Weight Ratio: Offers excellent structural strength for its relatively light weight, making it easier to handle, transport, and install on site compared to heavier hardwoods.
Straightness and Consistency: Grows tall and straight, resulting in timber that is generally uniform in size and shape with fewer defects, ensuring a level and plumb frame.
Ease of Workability: Its relatively soft nature makes it easy to cut, nail, drill, and shape with standard carpentry tools, increasing efficiency and reducing labour time.
Cost-Effectiveness: As a fast-growing, renewable softwood, pine is typically one of the most affordable and readily available framing timber options.

Merch Pine (Non Structural)
Merch pine is widely used for a range of non-structural internal applications including propping, noggins and trimming. It is not recommended for load bearing or visible applications.
