Eucalyptus poles are great for many projects due to their durability and unique appearance. Unlike many timbers, eucalyptus poles are a hardwood that grows naturally with little tapering over their length. As such, eucalyptus poles are highly desirable for commercial applications.
Frequently substituted for pressure-treated pine, eucalyptus poles have simple yet distinct features that enhance traditional settings and themed environments. These poles can be used for structural columns, and the natural appearance of these poles allows them to be project-ready without additional finishing. For architects, designers and property managers, we have compiled this guide on the top uses for eucalyptus poles.

TANALITH® E pressure treated eucalyptus is impregnated with a water-based wood preservative containing proven organic biocides and copper. The biocides in the preservative are included in the Biocidal Products Regulations. The process involves the use of pressure cylinders in which a vacuum pressure process ensures that the preservative penetrates and remains within the cell structure of the product.
While restrictions have been put in place for more traditional forms of treatment for wood, TANALITH® E is accepted throughout the world. In the U.S., this brand has received National Green Building certification and is marketed as Wolmanized® Residential Outdoor WoodTM.
The verification by Ecospecifier Global guarantees to professionals and consumers that health and environmental claims from the manufacturer are third party-verified and assessed with a Life Cycle Thinking analysis, along with an eco-toxicity and health screening. With pressure-treated eucalyptus, your products will also gain long-term protection from insects and fungi, providing further protection to the animals in zoos and aquariums.
