Sawn timber from robinia
4. Boards, edged, fixed widths
5. Boards, edged, falling widths
With Q-TIMBER Robinia sawn timber, you receive high-quality material in a range of edged and processing variants, suitable for both structural and design-oriented outdoor construction. Robinia timber is characterised by its high density, excellent mechanical strength and natural durability (durability class 1–2), making it a proven choice for permanently exposed and load-bearing structures.
When sawn correctly, kiln-dried under controlled conditions and used in a structurally sound manner, Robinia sawn timber offers good dimensional stability and high accuracy in practical application. At the same time, it provides natural resistance to wood-destroying fungi and insects as well as excellent weather resistance, even when used untreated.
The Q-TIMBER Robinia sawn timber range includes both standard dimensions and custom-made solutions. From boards and planks to project-specific cuts, we supply precisely tailored materials for applications in playground construction, landscaping and garden projects, fencing, and other outdoor structures.
On request, all products are also available as FSC®-certified Robinia timber. Individual dimensions, profiles or special grades can be supplied following personal consultation.

Frequently asked questions – FAQ
Our answers to your questions about robinia wood products and our range. If you have any further questions, we’ll be happy to help you individually.
Which products do you have in your range?
We offer the full range of standard robinia products in all common dimensions and finishes. From roundwood and sawn timber to squared timber, posts, and fencing. We can also supply laminated robinia for decking, façades, and structural construction in the best quality.
In addition, we are happy to help you realize your individual requirements.
What is robinia sawn timber used for?
Robinia sawn timber is used for structural and long-lasting outdoor applications where high strength, natural durability, and weather resistance are required. Thanks to its high density and natural resistance, robinia sawn timber is also suitable for uses with direct exposure to weather and ground contact, and can generally be used untreated.
Typical applications include structural timber and object construction, playground construction, and fencing. It is also used for decking, boards, and outdoor flooring structures, as well as load-bearing and design elements in outdoor spaces.
Robinia sawn timber is used wherever dimensional stability, high mechanical strength, and a long service life are essential.
Is robinia wood available in playground quality at Q-Timber?
Yes. Our robinia wood for playgrounds meets the requirements of DIN EN 1176.
It is available in various sanding grades and is supplied entirely without sharp edges.
Feel free to ask us about forked trunks (Y-branches), root sections, or climbing trees as well.
What does KD mean?
KD stands for Kiln Dried.
Kiln dried refers to wood that has been dried in a kiln under controlled conditions. Unlike natural air-drying, the wood is dried in a targeted and accelerated process to reach a desired moisture content.
What does AD mean?
For robinia wood, the abbreviation AD usually stands for air-dried. This means the wood was not artificially dried in a kiln, but naturally dried in the open air.
What does Appearance Grade A mean?
Appearance Grade A for wood (also known as visual grading A) describes the visual quality of the wood surface. It stands for a smooth, uniform surface with a knot-free structure and a particularly high-end appearance.
What do edged and unedged mean?
Edged boards are cut straight and evenly, while unedged boards have natural, irregular edges.
What is sapwood, and what does “sapwood-free” mean?
Sapwood is the outer, usually lighter part of a tree trunk directly beneath the bark. It transports water and nutrients within the tree, is often softer, less durable, and more susceptible to insect or fungal attack than the inner heartwood.
When robinia wood is de-sapped, the outer, less durable sapwood is typically removed using special planing or milling machines, leaving only the highly durable heartwood. This makes the wood more long-lasting, more stable, and visually more uniform.
What do fixed widths and random widths mean?
Fixed widths
Fixed widths mean that the wood products are supplied in clearly defined, consistent widths. Each board or plank has the same pre-set width within a given tolerance.
This option is particularly suitable for projects that require precise planning and a uniform appearance.
Random widths (falling widths)
With random widths, the widths of individual pieces vary within a specified range. The widths result from the natural growth of the wood and are not sorted to a uniform width.
Random widths are material-efficient, create a natural look, and are often used when a rustic or more authentic appearance is desired.
