The benefits of pine wood extend far beyond its cost-effectiveness. Environmentally, pine wood is a more sustainable choice than most timber types. This is due to the nature of how these trees grow. Since most of the wood is sourced from plantations, there is a guarantee that new trees are always growing during harvest.

The look

Since most stains and waxes take well to this wood, creating a beautiful piece with pine is easy, and you are guaranteed a quality result no matter the direction you choose! This wood also holds unique knots and a prominent grain.

Staying true to durability

The stiffness of pine wood makes it a durable and popular option for furniture pieces. As a softwood, this timber also holds a strong environmental advantage as it is less likely to face shrinking or swelling. Additionally, it offers high shock resistance, impressive compressive strength, and high bending strength. With the correct maintenance, this wood will bring years of use.
