What is planed timber? Planed timber PSE stands for Planed Square Edge, with smooth faces and edges. It can also be supplied as PAR (Planed All Round), where all surfaces are planed for a visibly uniform finish. For this product, the planed surfaces provide a clean, finish-ready base suitable for staining, oils or lacquers. PAR generally carries a higher price due to its enhanced visible finish.

Being softwood, it is straightforward to cut, plane and fix, while accepting a range of finishes to achieve the desired look.
