PAR (Planed All Round) softwood is timber that has been planed on all four sides to create a smooth finish. This makes it ideal for a variety of internal and external projects, including furniture making, framing and joinery.

2. What are the common uses of PAR softwood?

PAR softwood is commonly used for furniture construction, shelving, skirting boards, internal framing and other DIY projects where a smooth, splinter-free finish is required.

3. Is PAR softwood suitable for outdoor use?

PAR softwood can be used outdoors, but it must be treated with a preservative or sealant to protect it from moisture and weather conditions. Without treatment, it is better suited for indoor applications.
