Innovation is part of who we are. It's how we make better use of the timber we grow, so it goes further and does more good along the way.
We're proud to be an Australian innovation, combining cutting-edge science, engineering and robotics and built in collaboration with world-leading experts at Flinders University, Henkel and Bosch.
Our process makes better use of underutilised timber, from low-grade logs to juvenile material, giving it the look, feel and performance of hardwood grown over a century.

Hardwood, through and through.
We work with logs the industry often dismisses as low-grade, and rotary peeling is how we get more out of them. It recovers roughly double the usable timber that traditional milling would get from the same log.
From there, we bond and press those veneers together under heat, layer upon layer, until they form one solid billet, our "square trees." It takes around 300 veneers to build a single one.
That density is what makes it hardwood through and through, not a laminate. Once pressed, the material machines just like traditional timber.
Growth, on a different timeline.
At the core of our process is a water-based nano-resin that replicates lignin, the natural compound that binds wood fibres together inside a living tree. It's the same job lignin does, just compressed into hours instead of decades.
Applied to veneer, it locks those fibres into one dense, solid structure, giving the strength and stability of timber grown over generations. That means we don't have to wait for trees to reach maturity to get timber that performs like they have. We can tap into the resource that's available today and put it straight to use.
Our process is fast. Really fast.
Traditional timber doesn't just take decades to grow. Once it's milled, it can take months, sometimes years, to air dry before it's stable enough to use.
Our process skips that wait. Rotary peeling doesn't need logs to season. The veneer we start with is ready to use from day one.
It takes a single machine 15 minutes to produce 300kg timber, in the form of large billets, each measuring 2,500mm x 500mm x 250mm.
Precise, but never identical.
Our process guarantees precision and consistency, but every billet we produce is one-of-a-kind, carrying the natural beauty and character of the timber it came from.
With a variety of species and two grain cut options, we'll help you find the right match for your project, tailored to your needs, every time.
