As homeowners, designers, and builders become more conscious about sustainability and open to repurposing materials within the construction industry, there has also been more consideration around recycled flooring. It is not a new concept, people have been reusing old wood for flooring for many years out of necessity, however, today it is a real style choice. Recycled timber is a wonderful option for people who desire more bespoke flooring or want to incorporate a sustainable option into the design of their home. Here at Mr Timber Flooring, we offer a range of recycled timber flooring by Earthwood Floors.
What Is Reclaimed Timber Recycled Flooring
Reclaimed timber has been salvaged from abandoned structures like barns, warehouses, wharves, railways, power poles etc. This timber is stripped down, re-treated to prevent rot, and is then processed to create beautiful recycled timber flooring. The reclaiming process has been used to recover a range of high demand woods and is desired in the interior design industry for its stability and patina (weathered surface). Recycled timber also has many other benefits. Recycled timber flooring tends to cost a fraction of the price compared to new timber, it is eco-friendly by reusing existing timber that is no longer used instead of cutting down new timber (giving forests a chance to recover) and is ideal for homes/businesses that are going for a rustic or vintage aesthetic.

Victorian Origins Recycled, Re-Milled Timber Flooring
The timbers that are reclaimed, re-milled and recycled to produce Earthwood Victorian Origins Floorboards, have been hand-removed from houses and warehouses demolished across Victoria.
The timber species that were reclaimed include Blackbutt, Oak, Messmate, Alpine Ash, Mountain Ash, Stringybark, Silvertop Ash, and Southern Beech.
Gladstone Pipeline Reds, Re-Milled Timber Flooring
The Gladstone Pipeline in far North Queensland, runs for nearly 500 km. All along the route thousands of mature native trees were felled and milled into sleepers to hold the pipes during construction. Rather than leave this precious resource to be burned or chipped when the job was completed, Earthwood re-milled this beautiful Australian hardwood into Earthwood Gladstone Pipeline (Reds) Engineered Flooring.
