Glacial Oak – ASH’s brand of American Oak.

Glacial Oak provides improved methods in which America’s favourite hardwood is supplied to Australia. Processed in Victoria, handpicked by region and colour, graded and packed to meet Australian manufacturer’s requirements, Glacial Oak is a stunning yet sustainable hardwood of vast availability. Glacial Oak is consistently blonde in appearance and is closer to that of typical Engineered Oak flooring.

Processed in Australia, Glacial Oak is uniquely available in packs graded to ‘Australian Standards’ and processes. These are then packed into manageable ~1.5m cubic metre packs, set width x set thickness x random lengths, straight line cut after drying and defect docked.

For anyone familiar with American Oak, they know this creates an improved price, well-graded, straight and stable product with no grade surprises – fit for Australia’s volume markets and accessible to all. Glacial Oak is available in a range of profiles for staircase components, DAR & sawn, lining, furniture and joinery, benchtops, windows and doors and solid flooring.
