Majestic in size and beauty, the Araucaria is truly a magnificent timber species. These native Australian trees have fine, evenly textured, light yellow timber. Araucaria are a group of tree species native to the forested regions of Australia and can grow up to 60m tall and 2m across the base.
They are a slow growing tree that can live up to 450 years old and they rival the coniferous forests of North America and Eurasia with their impressive beauty.The Aboriginal Australians used the timber from Araucaria for the construction of boomerangs and Coolamons which were traditionally used to carry water, fruits, nuts, as well as to cradle babies. Seeds were roasted and pounded into damper.
As one of the few odourless and food safe woods in the world, it is extremely sought after for the production of baby cots, butter boxes and timber cutlery.Apply liberally to base of enclosure. Spot clean as necessary and replace weekly to fortnightly depending on stock levels in the enclosure.This is a non-pine product. Pine shavings are not recommended for use with small animals.
