Selects & Better Sawn to Size Dark Red Meranti

Red Meranti is used in joinery, general construction and also furniture, particularly for interior framing and drawer sides and backs. Meranti varies in colour from a red-brown to dark red and the select and better grade we supply contains few knots. Our cut to size timber is untreated and is dried in kilns to remove moisture content.

Treating Meranti can be difficult but it is possible to achieve a good finish. Also Meranti can be glued and nailed satisfactorily when joining and fixing.

Our cut to size Meranti timber products (also called sawn to size) are literally sawn down to your chosen measurements and come straight off the saw with no machining performed to the edges, unlike our planed products. Our cut to size timber is untreated and is most commonly dried in kilns to remove moisture content. Sawn to Size Dark Red Meranti is ideal if you don’t have the facility to cut timber down in-house.

If you are looking for ready-to-use, planed smooth timber, have a look at our Planed All Round Meranti calculator.
