Origin and character of the wood

Pine is widespread in large parts of Europe, Asia and North America and is one of the most important commercial tree species in the northern hemisphere. It grows comparatively quickly, forms long, straight trunks and provides a versatile softwood. Scots pine and black pine are particularly important for the European timber industry. Their wood is easy to work with, has a moderate weight and combines stability with a warm, natural appearance.

Robust properties and versatile use

Pine wood is known for its distinctive grain and high resin content, which makes it resistant and gives it a pleasant, typical fragrance. Its good technical properties make it suitable for both load-bearing constructions and decorative applications. It is easy to plane, saw and glue, making it suitable for use in furniture woodfurniture, interior fittings and many other areas. With the correct surface treatment, it retains its shape for a long time.

Color, texture and natural durability

Pine wood has a light to reddish-yellow color that darkens with age. The growth rings are clearly visible and the resin channels give the wood its characteristic scent and lively structure. Despite its positive properties, the natural durability is considered to be moderate, which is why it usually requires appropriate treatment outdoors and is not suitable for long-lasting use as decking.
