The colour of sawn timber may be either brown, red/brown or orange brown. Sapwood is paler and not clearly defined from truewood. The grain is usually straight but occassionally deeply interlocked. It is virtually unfigured. Texture is fine and even. It is non lustrous and non siliceous. It has a distinct iodine like odour that is persistent.

All external work. Wharf, bridges, sleepers, timber decking, cladding, truck bodies.
