Timber with a story... Brothers Paul and Philip Gaunt work in the building industry, and shared the same vision of bringing to market a high-quality sustainable, environmentally responsible Australian recycled timber flooring product. Paul founded Earthwood Floors, and together they brought their timber recycling ideas to fruition with the Earthwood engineered flooring range. Earthwood flooring recovers and recycles all-australian hardwood timber material from building demolitions that would otherwise be destined for landfill, and manufacture it into a world class flooring option. Earthwood Floors - we re bringing the past back to life. Earthwood Flooring - a Hybrid Designed Solid Surface With An Engineered Base Earthwood s reclaimed timbers are removed by hand during the building deconstruction process. These structural timbers are graded for quality, de-nailed and cut to size. The timber is re-hydrated and moisture balanced in controlled kilns to meet international standards for machining and drying, and precision milled to final form. This rigorous process guarantees the structural integrity and durability of all Earthwood flooring products. Earthwood flooring is supplied pre-finished; and in a natural raw form to provide our customers with greater flexibility when selecting finishes, stains and sheen levels. The hardwood surface layer is supplied pre sanded, requiring only a light buffing prior to finishing and coating. The hardwood surface layer has the same re-sandable depth of timber found in traditional solid flooring, so it can be resurfaced in the future. Earthwood floors can be installed as a floating floor, or as a traditional glued and nailed timber floor installation.

The Gladstone Pipeline in QLD Australia 130mm W x 15mm T with 3mm resandable layer Gladstone Pipeline Reds RECLAIMED & RECYCLED MIXED AUSTRALIAN HARDWOODS The Gladstone Pipeline in far North Queensland runs for nearly 300 miles from the Arcadia Valley to the distribution port of Gladstone. All along the route thousands of mature native trees were felled and milled into sleepers to hold the pipes during construction. Rather than leave this precious resource to be burned or chipped when the job was complete, Earthwood re-mill this beautiful Australian hardwood into our Earthwood Gladstone Pipeline Reds engineered flooring. Timber species reclaimed include Spotted gum, blackbutt, red and grey ironbark, brush box, red gum, rose gum, messmate.
