German term or phrase: Orgen III

This has come up in a document that I am translating about venetian blinds. There is a list of woods that the blinds are made of, e.g. Bergkiefer, Nussbaum and Eiche hell; "Orgen III" is among this list.

Can anybody tell me what it refers to?

Many thanks

Oregon pine III

Explanation:
