SILVERTOP ASH

DECKING
Eucalyptus Sieberi
Silvertop Ash is a lighter decking material than some other species, but it
is durable and easily nailed, which makes it an attractive decking option.

It is a straight-grained timber that often features gum veins, ambrosia,


growth rings and pencil steaks which add individuality to any decking
project. The colour palette ranges from pale to medium browns with a
hint of pink.

Silvertop is a native Australian timber which is sustainably harvested


from forests stretching from the mid-north of New South Wales to
Tasmania in the south.

Silvertop Ash provides good fire resistance, and is one of seven hardwood
species that was found suitable for construction in bushfire prone areas.

Britton Timbers supplies Silvertop Ash decking Australia-wide from


our Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane distribution centres and overseas
markets through Britton Timbers International.
