Pacific Blackbutt Flooring
Pacific Blackbutt (botanical name Eucalyptus pilularis) is a native Australian hardwood with strong structural and aesthetic credentials.
Key features include:
- A colour palette ranging from pale golden brown to honey, sometimes with a subtle pinkish hue.
- Straight, fairly uniform grain with a medium, even texture that creates a clean and contemporary appearance.
- High density and hardness, with a dry density of around 900 kg/m³ and Janka hardness of approximately 9.1 kN.
- Native to the eastern Australian coastal forests of New South Wales and southern Queensland.
Pacific Blackbutt floorboards are supplied with a factory-applied finish, reducing the sanding, coating and drying work required after installation. This helps provide a cleaner installation process and allows the floor to be used sooner
Professional installation is available across Sydney, including subfloor preparation, board installation and finishing details required for a lasting result.

Grades
Pacific Blackbutt may be supplied in different visual grades. The grade determines the amount of colour variation, gum veins, knots and natural markings visible in the boards.
Select Grade
Select Grade provides a cleaner and more uniform appearance. It generally contains fewer gum veins, knots and natural features.
It is suitable for contemporary interiors where a smooth and consistent floor is preferred.
Standard Grade
Standard Grade provides a balance between cleaner boards and visible timber character. It may include small gum veins, tight knots and natural colour variation.
It is a popular option for homeowners who want an authentic hardwood appearance without a heavily rustic finish.
Feature Grade
Feature Grade displays more prominent natural characteristics, including gum veins, knots, grain variation and stronger colour changes.
It is suited to interiors where the natural character of the timber is intended to remain visible.
Rustic Grade
Rustic Grade creates a more varied and expressive appearance. It may contain frequent gum veins, knots, checking and noticeable colour variation.
Grade names and allowable features can vary between manufacturers, so current availability should be confirmed before ordering
