Tips for Customers:

• Length Selection: To optimize efficiency and reduce waste, carefully plan your project to determine the most suitable timber length, considering the specific requirements of your construction design.
• Proper Handling and Storage: Ensure timber is stored flat in a dry, well-ventilated area to prevent warping or damage before installation. If stored outdoors, keep off the ground and cover to protect from weathering.
• Safety Precautions: Always use appropriate safety equipment, including gloves and protective eyewear, when cutting or handling treated timber to minimise exposure to wood dust and preservatives.

Timber is graded in strength classes, relative to BS EN 14081-1: 2005, ie C16 or the stronger C24 grade. These grades denote a group of species / strength grade combinations which have similar strength / mechanical properties. C16 graded timber is kiln dried and is primarily used for internal building work, mainly in floor and roof joists. The timber is usually machine graded or can be visually graded, having regard to criteria, such as the number of knots, fissures and slope of the grain etc.

This C16 timber is also treated for longer life outdoors.
