Queensland => Brisbane?
I use a Plywood wholesaler in Salisbury/ Rocklea area. Drop in there and have a chat with them to see what they think. Not sure what you would use for flooring. At a guess => I'm a fan of their 18mm exterior grade hardwood ply (using it for my kitchen bench and dining table). Not sure if it is treated enough for the base of a caravan though.
They are alot cheaper than bunnings.
If you are in Brisbane, let me know and I'll dig up there details up.

I used 12mm plywood. Painted/sealed both sides. I went for 12mm because it was strong but not as heavy as 15 or 18mm. If weight is not a huge problem for you then go as thick as you want.
Considering my original floor was 8mm ply and lasted 40 years, the 12mm I used was strong and cost effective.
