Our carcassing stock is strength graded C24, supplied by an established importer. Timber quality is high and the supply from Sweden is reliable and consistent. The timber is planed-all-round for consistency and easy handling. Pressure treated with timber preservative.
We keep large quantities of 47mm x 200mm carcassing while aiming to rotate stock as quickly as possible. Incoming carcassing deliveries from Scandinavia are received on a regular basis. Please note that because the imported timber is regularised and planed all-round most of our timber is now 45mm
Most architects now specify C24 graded timber because of the longer spans this makes possible. However this means that these timbers have to be imported. This is because our UK home-grown timber grows too quickly to achieve C24 grade.
Carcassing timber stocks are environmentally certificated, unless marked otherwise. We sell both FSC and PEFC certified timber. Both organisations are dedicated to promoting sustainable forest management. The process includes independent timber audits and third-party certification

Most of our carcassing timbers are stocked at multiples of 600mm intervals, that is 3.0m, 3.6m, 4.2m, 4.8m, 5.4m and 6.0m. There are a few exceptions including 47x75 which we normally keep at a maximum of 4.8 metres. It is possible to check current stock availability by viewing the webpage for the timber you require. Our stock levels are live, each stock transaction is updated as it happens.
Our carcassing timbers are Kiln Dried (KD) which gives them better stability then planed and regularised for a smooth and consistent finish. It is more pleasant to handle than most sawn carcassing. The finish is very similar to CLS timber. All of our carcassing timbers, with the exception of some CLS, is supplied pressure treated.
Popular uses for carcassing include floor joists, ceiling joists and roof rafters. The pressure treated (aka tanalised) carcassing is also used for decking joists and studwork. If these are exposed then further preservative treatment is advised to prolong service life. Again, for limited-protection timbers, a tin of Ronseal End Grain protector for any cross cuts in joists.
