Timber Flooring Grading Boral Timber flooring meets Australian Standards and uses the aesthetic Boral Timber grading system. Grading is distinguished by selective gum veins, spirals, burls, insect trails and other natural features that give timber floors a unique character, as individual as a signature. Boral Timber flooring is not graded for colour variation or grain patterns as they form part of the natural beauty of timber flooring.. Australiana grade Australiana Grade is carefully graded to include the most interesting and moderate natural features to enhance the look of a timber floor. Classic grade Classic Grade is a subtle feature grade of timber flooring that provides a limited level of natural features. The lower levels of natural feature present the floor with a uniform look.
Colours Variations of colour within a timber species are normal, therefore photographs can only be indicative of the colour range of the timber species.
