The distribution of Australian cypress is mostly in inland New South Wales and Southern Queensland (see map). Australian cypress is logged on a sustainable basis as part of the Australian Government's Australian Farm Forestry Program.

Australian cypress wood: Australian cypress is predominantly golden. However, variations in Australian cypress color range from cream colored sapwood and yellow-gold to brown heartwood. Australian cypress has closed and tight grain with large and small knots.

Australian cypress markets: The visual appeal of Australian cypress, its durability, density, nail holding ability, and termite resistance have made Australian cypress an attractive product in international markets, especially for flooring, feature finishes, and cabinetry.
