Mr. Rowney elaborates on technical innovations undertaken at the company that will add even further value. “A key project that we’ve been working on for the last half-decade is a product coming out of New Zealand plantation material, which is thermally modified Radiata Pine. There’s quite a bit of technology behind that thermal modification, but essentially what it does is deepens the colour and makes it quite vibrant, and also significantly improves the stability and durability of the timber. We bring that into Western Australia as the sole distributor and manufacture it into different products such as timber claddings, linings, fins, and battens for decorative purposes.
