THE ORIGINAL

"ADELAIDE BRUSH FENCING"

 

Founded by Hague Showell in 1991 as Adelaide Brush Repairs, Adelaide Brush Fencing has built a peerless reputation over a 20 year period in the Adelaide region, for quality new and repair brush fencing work using traditional hand packing methods and latterly using more modern and durable machine compressed panels and modular installation techniques.  In 1998 Adelaide Brush launched the first brush fencing website in Australia and included details of repair and installation methods as well as recording the history of brush fencing.  See this page from the old site ...  HISTORY

In 1999 Adelaide Brush Fencing could see that the environmental future lay with plantation brush and more durable 'never sag' machine compressed brush fencing panels and formed a new business ausbrush to develop these concepts for the Australian market.

Brush fencing also known as brushwood, broom, broombush or brushbox is manufactured from Melaleuca uncinata, an Australian native lignotuber which is found naturally occurring over vast areas of Australia.  Brush comprises many different naturally occurring provenances of Melaleuca and the colour of the bark varies from a light grey to black, 'mottly' grey-black and red colourings.

Melaleuca uncinata is a very hardy plant, salt resistant and grows well on a range of soil types, making it an ideal selection for soil rehabilitation and carbon credit projects. The species grows best in areas where the groundwater table is high and in the higher rainfall areas, although it will survive well in the lower rainfall areas such as the Murray Mallee.  The lifespan of the cut brush when packed in a fencing panel is long, maintenance is low, and it has white ant resistant and thermal qualities.  Brush fencing is an environmentally friendly fencing product as it requires little secondary processing or energy use to prepare, is a renewable resource and being cut from a lignotuber can be recut many times from the original bush.  It is used extensively in Western Australia in land rehabilitation products and the plantation industry initiatives are supported by the WA Government and Avon Region authorities.

When you are looking for a natural and effective method to beautify any surrounds or for a landscaping project or privacy fence screen, brush fencing is an ideal choice.  Brush is of natural look and neutral colouring, which blends well with garden beds and man-made structures and in addition brush fencing also has noise and thermal attenuation properties, ideal for cutting unwanted road noise and in protecting adjoining plant beds from the hot northerly sun.

New product ausbrush ProtaCoat for use on brushwood has preservative, antifungal, pest resistant and fire retardant properties. 

Typical uses for brush fencing in adelaide include; fences, dividers, privacy fence screens, partitions, service enclosures - (such as rubbish, / trash, pool pump, golf course service yards, car park enclosures), windbreaks, temporary event screening, tourist resort screening, screening of building extensions and service yards, thatch hut roofing and pergola and shadehouse roofing, patio and swimming pool surrounds, water features, equestrian horse jumps, aviaries, bird feeders, topiary (emus and kangaroos), garden borders and as a replacement for wood fencing, bamboo fencing, picket fencing, pvc fencing, iron and colorbond fencing.  It is also very versatile in that it can be used on sloping sites and can be tapered, scalloped and blended into structures (profiled pillars and tree trunks) and cut over uneven bases and walls.

For the past ten years sister company Ausbrush Panels has been working towards a future involving machine harvested plantation brush, machine manufacture of brush fencing panels, modular panel installation systems and development of world-wide markets for Australian brush fencing and screening products.  The year 2012 is a landmark year and now all Ausbrush brush fencing panel products are derived from plantations rather than natural stands.
