Timber is the only renewable building material. In Australia, it is harvested from sustainably managed forests and plantations ensuring that at least one new tree is planted for every one that is harvested. During growth, trees filter the air, capturing carbon dioxide and storing the carbon as wood fibre while releasing oxygen into the air.
Australia’s plantation resource is critical in reducing the impact of greenhouse gas emissions and is a key part of climate change solutions for the world.
Did you know that:
- Australian softwood plantations would re-grow an average house frame in 2.5 minutes
- Wood is a natural carbon store-up to 50% of its dry mass is carbon
- For every tree that is harvested from certified plantations at least one is replanted
Did you also know that a typical* Australian home:
- Has absorbed almost 9 tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air
- More than 3 tonnes of carbon
*Note: a typical Australian home is made up of approximately 14m3 of sawn timber.

Why would you use anything but Australian Plantation Pine Framing?
One of the most valued uses of Australian Plantation Pine is in structural applications, both for indoors and outdoors. Structural Pine Framing is the backbone of most Australian homes.
Timber framing is one of the most eco-friendly building materials on Earth. Timber is sustainable, renewable, non-toxic and organic. It’s also carbon positive, capturing more CO2 than it emits throughout the production process. Let’s build for a brighter future.
