New Zealand pine is plantation grown, renewable and sustainable, providing the ideal alternative to threatened tropical timbers. The expanding pine resource in NZ ensures sustainable harvest levels for years to come. The result is a natural wood product from a renewable resource.
It is a medium-density softwood, straight-grained with an even texture. It is treated to H3.2 for durability and works well with hand and machine tools. Heartwood is light brown in colour and is non-durable to perishable in regards to decay resistance. Sapwood is a pale yellowish-white colour treated with preservatives to be used in external applications.
New Zealand pine is an extremely versatile softwood and well-suited for a range of structural and appearance applications. The light consistent colour of radiata pine readily accepts stains and its general properties make it ideal for painting. JSC regularly recommends and sources Radiata Pine for unique architectural projects.
