Products - Sawn Timber
PTM offers best quality of sawn timber with great precession in size & finishing. Various species in which ready stock of sawn timber is available are as follows :

Imported wood
  New Zealand Radiata Pine
Radiata Pine is a versatile timber; it is widely used for the full range of structural and decorative applications.When appropriately treated, it can be used for many exposed structural and non-structural applications.

The timber is low in density and fairly soft, often with very wide annual growth rings. The grain is usually straight, but knots are common.
Radiata Pine is very easy to work with standard tools. Its open grain structure readily accepts preservative treatment, which can provide protection to hazard level 6 (the highest level).
Radiata Pine is a plantation softwood timber grown widely throughout New Zealand. Radiata Pine plays a significant role in meeting the ever-increasing demand for sawn timber. As a well-managed plantation tree, it can provide a renewable resource providing dependable supply for generations to come.

Radiata Pine Properties
Color Cream to light straw
Grain Grain is usually straight. Knots are common and growth rings are prominent
Texture Fine but uneven
Density Approximately 550kg/m3 at 12% moisture content. Unseasoned density approximately 800kg/m3
Shrinkage Approximately 2.9% radial, 4.8% tangential

Workability:

General Usually easy to work away from knots
Blunting Moderate. Can be severe in knotty material
Sawing Easy, normally fairly clean
Planing Smooth surfaces easy to attain. Knots can be hard on cutters
Moulding Satisfactory
Boring Easy to drill. Holes tend to be oversize
Rebating + Mortising Generally produces good results
Turning Satisfactory. Density variations across growth rings can cause problems
Nailing Very easy to nail. Good Nail Holding Capacity
Gluing Glues well with most common adhesives
Finishing Readily worked to a smooth, flat surface. Stains readily, and finishes adhere very well


Uses of New Zealand Radiata Pine
Construction - New Zealand pine (Pinus radiata) is a preferred shuttering material for construction Chief amongst these properties are its medium density and uniform grain which confer good fastening and working properties. New Zealand pine`s strength and stiffness ease of drying and suitability for treatment with preservatives and fireretardant    
chemicals are also advantageous for construction. It is a relatively stable wood and kiln drying further improves its stability.

Furniutre - Comparative tests undertaken by New Zealand`s Forest Research Institute(NZFRI) in conjunction with universities in North America and England have shown conclusively that New Zealand pine machining properties(e.g.planing sanding moulding turning) compare very favourably with those of most internationally traded softwoods. In addition it performs very well in gluning and finger-jointing because of the even density within growth rings good permeability and Iow extractives content.

Industrial Uses - New Zealand pine has been used with great success for many years for the manufacture of pallets.

Exterior Uses - New Zealand pine is notnaturally durable for exterior uses. But when preservative treated it is totally accepted by architects engineers builders and consumers for virtually all uses which in the past have required lumber of high natural durability.
 

Malaysian Sal Wood
Sal wood is one of the strongest timber in the world, It weighs nearly 25 to 30 kg to a cubic foot .It is accordingly considered most suitable for railway sleepers, piles, beams and other load bearing parts of bridge structures, bodies of load carriers, including motor trucks, super structure of house tops, etc. In fact Sal wood is most suitable for all such applications where strength and elasticity are foremost requirements, and where polishing is not so very essential. Sal wood being so much sought after for construction purposes, its demand is much more than the available supply.
