40 X 40MM SCREENING BLACKBUTT RANDOM LM
AKA: Coastal Blackbutt, Pink Blackbutt or Eucalyptus pilularis
Timber decking is a great way to extend your living spaces and blur the lines between inside and out, with blackbutt decking a solid choice for the harsh Australian conditions.
Blackbutt is a remarkably fire resistant eucalyptus that grows in the coastal forests of New South Wales and South East Queensland. It’s inherent durability, in combination with proper maintenance, means blackbutt decking can last for some 25-30 years!
As with most natural timber products, colour variation within the blackbutt timber species is normal and one of its most appealing characteristics. Blackbutt’s heartwood ranges from golden yellow to pale brown, although occasionally a slight pinkish colour may be present. The sapwood, which can be hard to distinguish, is much paler in appearance and is naturally resistant to attack by lyctid borers (Powder Post Beetles). Blackbutt generally has an even texture and straight grain, so it is sure to complement any outdoor living area.
