{"product_id":"tallowwood-timber-flooring","title":"Tallowwood Timber Flooring","description":"\u003cp\u003eTallowwood timber flooring combines natural durability with a subtle, golden tone that works well in modern and traditional interiors. It’s dense, stable, and rated BAL 12.5, making it a practical choice for both family homes and bushfire-prone areas. With a smooth grain, low shrinkage, and natural resistance to termites and moisture, Tallowwood is easy to live with and built to last, making it perfect for your living and working premises.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Choose Tallowwood Timber Flooring?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNatural Warmth with a Clean, Balanced Grain\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTallowwood stands out quietly. It’s a local Australian hardwood that leans toward the lighter end of the colour spectrum — soft honey, pale straw, even light blonde at times. The grain is usually fine and straight, with very few visual interruptions. It’s the sort of floor that adds warmth and clarity without taking over the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou’ll find it works well in homes that use a lot of natural light or lean into earthy materials. It doesn’t overpower, and that makes it easy to work into a wide range of styles, from modern builds to more classic, timber-heavy spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Solid Option That’s You Can Rely On\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis timber has a Janka hardness rating of 8.6, which places it at the high end of the scale for durability. It holds up well under regular use – kids, pets, hallway foot traffic, and it doesn’t splinter or chip easily. It’s also known for having low shrinkage and excellent dimensional stability, so you’ll see less movement across the boards as the seasons shift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTallowwood contains its own natural oils, which help it resist both moisture and termites, a handy bonus in more humid locations. It’s also compliant with BAL 12.5 bushfire construction requirements, so if you’re in a zone that needs extra care, it’s worth considering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChoose the Look That Works for You\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe supply Tallowwood in two distinct grades:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e Select Grade \u003c\/b\u003e – Smooth and consistent, with very few knots or surface markings.

It doesn’t need ongoing treatments, and you won’t be chasing marks or scuffs every few weeks. A soft broom or vacuum handles most of the regular cleaning. A lightly damp mop now and then will freshen it up, and any spills can be wiped off with a cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you’re building new or replacing old floors, Tallowwood offers a solid, good-looking surface that doesn’t overcomplicate things.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ght-related\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelated:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/products\/messmate-solid-timber-flooring\"\u003eMessmate Solid Flooring\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/products\/tasmanian-oak-timber-flooring\"\u003eTasmanian Oak Solid Timber Flooring\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/products\/american-oak-timber-flooring\"\u003eAmerican Oak Solid Timber Flooring\u003c\/a\u003e. \u003cstrong\u003eGoes with:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/flooring-accessories\"\u003eflooring accessories\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/skirtings-and-architraves\"\u003eskirtings and architraves\u003c\/a\u003e. \u003cstrong\u003eRange:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/solid-timber-flooring\"\u003eSolid Timber Flooring\u003c\/a\u003e in \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/flooring\"\u003eFlooring\u003c\/a\u003e. \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/flooring-thomastown\"\u003eVisit the flooring showroom in Thomastown\u003c\/a\u003e. \u003cstrong\u003eGuides:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/guides\/how-to-take-care-of-your-flooring\"\u003eHow to take care of your flooring\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Greenhill Timbers","offers":[{"title":"130 x 14 \/ Rustic","offer_id":68913617600546,"sku":"GHT-5219","price":100.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"130 x 14 \/ Select","offer_id":68913617633314,"sku":"GHT-4564","price":127.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0917\/3981\/5970\/files\/tallowwood.jpg?v=1792367758","url":"https:\/\/greenhilltimbers.com.au\/products\/tallowwood-timber-flooring","provider":"Greenhill Timbers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
