Australian Oak Timber

Australian Sustainable Hardwoods (ASH)

Australian Oak is ASH’s brand of Tasmanian Oak (and previously available Victorian ash) and is made up of three species – Eucalyptus regnans (Mountain Ash), Eucalyptus delegatensis (Alpine Ash) and Eucalyptus obliqua (Messmate).

Tasmanian Oak is a light-coloured hardwood that is easy to work with and produces a beautiful warm finish. It offers an appealing tonal depth and is renowned for its excellent staining qualities, making it easy to match with existing finishes. A renowned hardwood, Tassie Oak remains one of Australia’s most trusted and versatile building materials.

What makes our Australian Oak truly unique is how production improves its use and performance. Once our slabs are quarter sawn to ensure optimal stability, our timber is cut perfectly straight to give you a superior Australian Oak.

As a strong and stable hardwood, Australian Oak offers great workability due to its high sanding and gluing potential. Suitable for a range of uses, it is the perfect timber for interior applications like furniture and joinery, staircase components, DAR & sawn, flooring and lining.

Through advanced processing methods and a commitment to innovation, ASH has secured reliable and ongoing supply of Tasmanian Oak to ensure builders, manufacturers, specifiers and home renovators can feel confident sourcing and specifying one of Australia’s most loved hardwoods across a wide range of applications.
