mixed species eucalypt forests. The Orbost Sawmill

the Orbost Sawmill are then sent to the Bairnsdale

Processing Centre for kiln drying in state-of-the-art

facilities. The timber is then processed into tongue and

grooved flooring, decking, fence screening, furniture

timbers and joinery.

specialised and efficient facility for the production

of Radiata Pine roof tiling battens, for use in the
