Boral hardwood decking - River RedsAustralian hardwood decking and timber continues to be a popular choice for outdoor design, offering an attractive alternative to concrete and paving materials.

Whether carrying out an extensive landscaping project or adding a new feature to the garden, timber offers homeowners a versatile decorative or building product, which can be easily adapted for an array of applications such as screens, fences, decks and bench seating.

Using the boards either horizontally or vertically, timber can achieve a striking aesthetic. Coated for a smooth finish, stained to complement a particular colour scheme or left untreated to simulate a natural, weathered aesthetic, hardwood decking suits a range of styles. The natural beauty of timber decking can also be highlighted via the use of outdoor lighting to feature the boards by night.

Additionally, some of Boral Timber’s species are naturally fire resistant, making them ideal for outdoor constructions in bushfire prone areas.

Boral Timber’s hardwood decking offers high density, toughness and durability. Species included in the Metricon offering are Blackbutt and River Reds.

Boral Timber has an Australian Forestry Standard (AFS) Chain of Custody certification for its products ensuring users that they are sourced from sustainably managed and legal sources. AFS is the largest forest certification scheme and is the only certification scheme that meets Australian Standard AS 4708-2007. It is dedicated to supporting good forestry practices with sustainable management.
