Board Grades
Board grades are influenced by appearance characteristics. Hardwood species involved two appearance grades: 'select' and 'medium feature'. 'Select grade' has minimal natural characteristics. 'Medium feture grade' has extra features such as tight and loose gum veins, and a limited number of gum pockets (see note 1).

Medium feature grade will be supplied unless otherwise specified. Cypress operates under a different standard including two grades (see note 2): grades 'one' and grade 'two'. These specify similar features to those of hardwood. Grade two will be supplied unless otherwise specified.
