Red Ironbark Decking from Melbourne Timber Supplies is one of Australia’s most iconic and resilient hardwoods, prized for its striking appearance and unmatched strength. Sourced from Eucalyptus crebra in the drier regions of Northern New South Wales and Eastern Queensland, Red Ironbark is renowned for its fiery personality and bold character. Its deep reddish‑brown tones, accented with darker streaks and cathedral grain patterns, create a visually captivating deck that complements both modern architectural designs and rustic outdoor settings. Beyond aesthetics, Red Ironbark is built to endure Australia’s toughest climates, offering exceptional durability, fire resistance, and natural resilience against pests and decay.
