Our Timber
For over 15 years Ironwood Australia (formerly Rozelle Recycled Building Centre), has sought out and recycled rare old seasoned Australian hardwood timbers, from historic buildings and bridges. Our recycled timbers create stunning floorboards, timber decks, stairs, benchtops and structural timbers. Now, due to the ever-growing demand we also source reclaimed-timbers, which are recovered from devastated woodlands, and new timbers, sourced from regrowth forests. Being environmentally aware we make it our business to know the regrowth forests are being managed properly using environmentally sustainable practices, which are regulated and administered by our various State Governments and the independent timber mills that we support.

Make it Your Choice
Ironwood Australia is
very proud to have its own proprietary timber matching system -
'CHOICE' - because selecting the right timber is not as
easy as it appears and not all timber floor decisions are the same.
The 'CHOICE' system was developed to explain
the six most important characteristics that determine and influence
the nature of our Australian hardwood timbers. The 'CHOICE'
system is therefore an invaluable aide to communicate effectively
with our customers because it is important for us to know that
our customers are educated and empowered to make informed and meaningful
selections.
So now you can see online the lengths that we go
to deliver our Ironclad Satisfaction Guarantee. It's more
about 'CHOICE'.
