Recycled/Salvaged
RECYCLED
Australian hardwoods like Ash, Blackbutt, Spotted Gum, Tallowwood, North Coast Mahogany, Turpentine and Brushbox. The freshly milled tongue and groove makes for precise, snug fitting boards and quick installation. Like new boards, but with a rich character and story to tell.
The floor board surface can be dressed lightly to leave some of the original rough sawn surface for a more rustic sawtooth patina, or we can mill it back further for a cleaner appearance, revealing all the grain and colour of the timber.
SALVAGED
Flooring has been rescued after its past life as floor boards in old factories, wool stores, schools and houses.
Each board is a truly one-of-a-kind product. Rescuing this historical timber flooring isn’t easy, but it’s worth it.
Re-milled Flooring is sawn and milled from recycled roof timbers - sourced from pre-1960’s building demolitions.
