Grade

Different grades reflect the amount of natural character present in the timber. Some boards are clear and consistent, while others feature knots, cracks and colour variation. These visual differences don’t affect performance – they simply offer options for the look and feel you want to achieve.

Clear

Clear grade offers the most refined and uniform appearance. With minimal visible knots, cracks or variation, it delivers a smooth, consistent finish ideal for spaces that call for a clean, sophisticated aesthetic.

Prime

Prime grade offers a balanced, natural look with subtle character. You may see small knots and gentle tonal variation, providing a touch of feature while maintaining a predominantly uniform appearance.

Light Feature

Light feature grade introduces a measured level of natural variation. Small to medium knots, colour shifts and occasional imperfections create gentle texture without overwhelming the overall design. Knots and cracks are typically filled to maintain a smooth surface.

Feature

Feature grade expresses more of the timber’s natural story. Larger knots, visible cracks, and varied tones create warmth and visual interest. Filled features ensure the surface remains refined while still celebrating authentic character.

Rustic

Rustic grade embraces bold, organic variation. Large knots, open cracks and pronounced colour and grain differences result in a striking, character-rich aesthetic. These features may be filled or partially filled, depending on the product and intended look.
