RECYCLED TIMBER
Timber was recycled from
warehouses, derelict buildings and factories. Now timber is recycled from power
poles, bridges and wharves, which has had a life outside and is
predominately Grey Ironbark and Spotted Gum with more imperfections...
These timbers are well
seasoned but if milled the moisture content from the centre to the outer
edges varies quite considerably. After the timber is cut it is air dried
and then put in a kiln so the moisture equalizing process takes place
before the timber is re-milled.
Air
Seasoned / Kiln Dried to better than 18% MC for exterior timber, 11% MC

All timber supplied by Nash Timbers will be remilled from recycled/
salvaged timbers & such, therefor it may contain nail holes & other

Colour
Colour of the timber will
be determined by the species, natural variations can and do occur. Timber
is a natural product providing a broad range of colour variations across
the 3 main spectrums of creams, browns and reds. When choosing timber, Nash Timbers
encourage our client’s to see the true colour variation in each species. If
requiring a single species an extra cost is added.
Sizes and Lengths
Nominal Sizes start from 250mm
x 250mm, range in length from 2 to 14mts
Chain of Custody
The timbers
provided by Nash Timbers to our customers are guaranteed to be from a
single source. The
power/transmission poles that are received by the mill have been
decommissioned and deemed unserviceable by our supplier for their needs
Most poles have an
identification tag denoting the characteristics of the pole including rated
strength of the pole, length of the pole when in service, species and the
supplier of the pole.
Maintenance program for Recycled Timber
Due
to the timber already having a life outside, a maintenance program must be
put into place.
A good penetrating oil or protective coating must be applied when
installed.
Then regularly maintained when timber dries out and cracks.
