Benefits of Douglas Fir
Douglas Fir Grading
Millworks Grade A/B
Millworks A/B Grade timber offers the best value option for achieving a largely clear appearance while retaining some character from the presence of knots. This grade may require cutting to remove defects such as knots and splits.
Value: A/B Grade timber strikes a balance between affordability and aesthetic appeal, making it an excellent choice for projects that require both visual charm and practicality.
Character: The inclusion of knots adds unique character, enhancing the natural charm of the timber.
Defect management: Some cutting may be necessary to eliminate noticeable defects, ensuring a more refined appearance.
Best suited for random lengths, Millworks A/B Grade timber is ideal for cladding, combining visual appeal with practicality for a variety of construction projects.
