Becoming part of Claymark Australia brings together two established family businesses with a shared commitment to timber, innovation and supporting the Australian building industry.

And we’re incredibly proud of what SmartFrame by Tilling brings to that partnership.

Since 1963, Tilling has built a strong reputation in the Australian timber industry, growing to become a leading timber importer and supplier. The launch of SmartFrame in 1995 marked another important step, with the business helping pioneer the introduction and adoption of engineered timber products and systems in Australia.

From those early days, SmartFrame has continued to invest in engineering, product development and technical expertise – helping make engineered timber easier to specify, design and build with. Today, that investment sits behind the SmartFrame products, engineering solutions and technical support our customers rely on.

But what really makes SmartFrame by Tilling is our people. We’re incredibly proud of our team and the passion, knowledge and commitment they bring to delivering great products, technical solutions and service for our customers.

Now, as part of Claymark Australia, we have an opportunity to build on everything that’s been established over more than 60 years of Tilling and 30 years of SmartFrame.

It’s an exciting time for SmartFrame by Tilling, and we’re looking forward to what’s ahead.

What This Means for Our Customers, Suppliers, and Industry Partners.

You’ll start to see our connection with Claymark reflected across our marketing and communications, but SmartFrame by Tilling remains the brand you know and work with.

• The SmartFrame by Tilling brand continues.
• Our legal entity name remains Tilling Timber Pty Ltd.
• Our team remains here to support you.
• Our trusted products, technical expertise and customer service continue.
• Being part of Claymark Australia gives us access to broader resources, capability and opportunities for future investment.

As part of Claymark Australia’s growing Australian operations, SmartFrame by Tilling joins Mortim, bringing together established timber businesses and strengthening the group’s national capability, while each business continues to operate under its established brand and remain focused on its customers.

Looking Forward

Becoming part of Claymark Australia gives us the opportunity to build on the strength of the SmartFrame by Tilling business – not change what has made it successful.

We’ll continue investing in our products, engineering and technical support, while exploring the opportunities that come from being part of a broader timber business with greater resources and capability.

For our customers, suppliers, and industry partners, our focus remains where it has always been – great timber products, strong technical expertise and people who know the industry.

We’re proud of the business we’ve built, excited about what comes next and look forward to continuing to work with you as SmartFrame by Tilling, part of Claymark Australia.

Red Alert Wall can be a complete replacement of MGP 10 and MGP 12 and its increased capacity may allow for wider stud spacing and smaller jamb studs. These remarkable benefits mean that the use of LVL in place of pine framing in projects has the potential to be cost neutral.

Leon Quinn, National Sales and Marketing Manager says, “Whilst the Red Alert Wall LVL 12 will always be at a higher price point than softwood framing there is no doubt some builders have a need for higher performing, more stable, engineered framing, and don’t mind paying a premium for this.”

The product is already performing on building sites throughout QLD and Victoria. Early feedback from both fabricators and builders alike has been extremely positive. The striking Red Wall framing stands out on the building site as the mark of a quality build.

With the addition of this game changing product, Tilling SmartFrame continues to provide more choice to the Frame and Truss Trader.

Red Alert Wall LVL 12 comes in the following sizes:

70mm x 35mm
90mm x 35mm (this is the only size available in Victoria)
140mm x 35mm
190mm x 35mm

Please contact your Tilling representative for more information on this exciting new product.

• Easy design of complicated loads with great confidence.

• Simplicity  – which makes it easy to return to a job months later.

The SmartFrame Design Software is wholly owned and maintained by the Tilling Group, ensuring you are always kept up to date with any changes to the Building Codes and additions to the SmartFrame range of Engineered Wood Products.
