Redwood Pine Timber Planed
Scandinavian redwood pine is renowned for being sustainable as it is grown, harvested and replenished in vast forests in Sweden and Finland. Though it is reasonably fast grown our pine is the unsorted more premium grade with a more dense grain making it stronger and more stable. The appeal with pine is that it is light in colour and planes very smooth so it is ideal for painting. Our pine has fewer knots but the characterful look gives an unmistakenly authentic natural look and feel. At Timbersource we have a variety of smooth planed square edge timber (PAR) for joinery and building projects. It can be used for either interior or exterior woodwork projects for the trade and DIY. These timbers are sold as a set size wood option to give you the most economical thicknesses and standard widths and lengths. These off-the-shelf wood options are great for furniture making, interior decor, outdoor benches, shelving, cabinet making, decking, wall panelling. All timber is high quality and machined, delivered to your door and ready to work with.

What is PAR wood?
Planed All Round otherwise known as PAR or PSE (Planed Square Edge) Is machined so that the four surfaces and edges will be planed to a smooth surface and uniform thickness. If planed is preferable for you, simply ‘request’ it as part of your timber order, and the sizes after planing.
Why do you need to plane timber?
- Sawn timber from sawmills is rarely perfectly straight - PAR will make it straight
- The sawmills only plank timber roughly from the tree and remove the waney edge - PAR will make it parallel
- Square edged parallel timber is essential for jointing together on the sides or corners to avoid gaps or irregular angles
- Taking off the rough surface will reveal any imperfections, splits, character, knots, holes - PAR will highlight any of these
- Planing the rough surface makes the timber smooth and ready for sanding
- You can't paint or stain rough sawn timber effectively
- Planing makes timber suitable for shelving, homemade furniture and flooring as well as a vast range of other products
