Eucalyptus Poles

Also known as: Eucalyptus Timbers, Eucy Poles & Gum Poles

This dense wood can be used structurally and for decorative purposes. It’s often featured in African-style tribal fencing, tiki and palapa structures, and any other application that needs a rustic appearance. Eucalyptus is sustainably grown which makes it a perfect product for “green” construction projects.

Plantation-grown eucalyptus has a variety of working qualities that make it appropriate for interior applications. Eucalyptus is particularly well-suited to high-use interior situations as it maintains its appearance.The poles can be white washed or even stained a dark mahogany. Its rustic appearance looks great in major resorts around the world including Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge.
