Australian Blackbutt (Eucalyptus pilularis) was the chosen timber for Flooring. The name "Blackbutt" came about due to the tree's appearance after bushfire, where the buttress - or butt - is significantly darkened.
The grain can be interlocked but it is generally straight, making it appealing for interior use applications such as flooring and joinery. The heartwood ranges from golden yellow to pale brown, although occasionally a slight pinkish colour may be present. The sapwood, which is not always easy to distinguish, is much paler in appearance. Small gum veins may also be visible.
