Radiata Pine, in its natural state, is ideal for various value-added processes. Through modern kiln-drying and preservation techniques, our processed Radiata Pine meets New Zealand building code standards, including NZS 3603 and NZS 3604.
Our three high-temperature kilns efficiently dry 50mm thick Radiata Pine, reducing moisture content from a green 120% to a kiln-dry 18% in just 24 hours. Additionally, poles can be kiln-dried or steam-conditioned before treatment, with our kilns processing over 27,000m³ of timber annually.
We use the DryTrack in-kiln moisture measurement system to help operators accurately monitor the drying process. This technology ensures energy efficiency and consistent drying quality.
