Sustainability

We are committed to the sustainable harvesting of Australia’s native hardwood resources. By using new technology, establishing high value plantations as well as commissioning a new bio energy plant to deal with our waste, we are always looking at ways to improve and minimise our footprint while continuing to supply the construction industry with the most sustainable building material there is. We truly believe you can love both timber and trees, if we innovate and work together to do so sustainably. 

Native Hardwood Plantations

Our vision is to become totally self sufficient by managing our own durable, native plantations. In 2004 we established a 30 year plan to plant up to 2000 hectares of Silvertop AshYellow Stringybark, Southern Mahogany, Spotted Gum, Red Ironbark and Coastal Greybox plantations for future generations. To date we have planted over 1 million trees.

The Radial Sawing Method

Radial Sawing was specifically designed to maximise the recovery of sawn timber from smaller logs. As such, Radial Sawing has a range of both environmental and technical benefits. Where conventional sawing methods require large diameter logs Radial Sawing technology helps make native hardwood plantations logs more viable by maximising the yield of high value timber products from smaller logs. 

Radial Timber's LVL Line

An LVL (Laminated Veneer Lumber) mill is a manufacturing facility dedicated to producing Radial Timber products using the LVL process. In an LVL plant, thin wood veneers are arranged in a parallel alignment, bonded together with adhesives, and compressed under heat and pressure to form strong and versatile timber products. This gives us the opportunity to use our low value, thinned plantation logs to create high value products.

Bioenergy Pyrolysis Plant

Our new innovative Bioenergy plant will harness the power of pyrolysis, a thermochemical process, to convert wood biomass into valuable biochar, bio-oils, heat and energy. By utilizing radial timber waste as its primary feedstock, the plant will not only generate sustainable energy products but also demonstrate a commitment to environmental stewardship and circular economy principles. With a focus on efficiency and eco-friendliness, Radial Timbers aims to pioneer a new frontier in the timber industry, fostering both economic growth and environmental sustainability.
