Blackbutt
With a gorgeous golden yellow to pale brown tone, our blackbutt flooring is designed to replicate the natural beauty of the Blackbutt tree – which grows in Southern Queensland and New South Wales. Blackbutt is known for the pinkish tinge across pale brown, it’s versatile and can be matched with a range of interior designs. Our Blackbutt may not be timber, but it’s just as durable – made from a high density fibreboard with a silicone core that has four distinct layers of protection. If you want to try a new look this year, Blackbutt style floors are set to take over homes and businesses by storm.
