GREY BOX DECKING
135 x 19
FACTORY COAT OF WOCA CLEAR OIL
Grey Box is one of Australia’s sturdiest hardwoods, renowned for its dense structure, tight cathedral grain, and subtle tones ranging from nutty browns to soft wheat. Rated Class 1 for natural durability and boasting a Janka hardness around 15 kN, it performs outstandingly in high‑traffic, exposed or coastal decks.
At LMA Timber, we source responsibly managed Grey Box, finished with factory-applied oil to assist acclimatisation and ensure long-term performance, even in New Zealand’s toughest environments.
