We, in Australia, have a great range of timber to select from. Being a wood dense continent, we have the endless outback and an array of vast bush ranges that are diverse, beautiful, and unique in nature. Throughout history, we have found many great uses for timber, from constructing the framework of our architectural and infrastructural make-up as we know it today, to crafting instruments and furniture. One area in which timber has been especially prominent in Australia is landscaping. Along with fence palings and decking boards, treated pine sleepers in Melbourne have proven to be a staple in yards across the country.
