About:
GBE Timber Species Dataset
- GBE posted an Excel Spreadsheet of timber species to assist users:
- Use it to:
- search through 176 species, wood panel products and variations
- interrogate 67 sets of data about each species
- help specify by performance instead of species
- find a suitable timber species
- find a species and check if it is an appropriate choice for the application
- find a species and then its numerous properties
- find an alternative timber species
- to those old favourites that we should be avoiding now.
- find out if the species should be avoided
- If its pink avoid it.
- Choose FSC certified timber instead.
- find species with durability to avoid preservatives
