A raw material selected to guarantee quality and durability.
Selection of our solid woods:
Our endemic woods come mainly from sustainably managed forests in France to guarantee high quality and durability.
The drying time is respected so that the humidity level is optimal. As much as possible it happens naturally.
We only use heartwood, which is the hardest part of the wood so that its density is not afraid of attack by insects and is not likely to split. Our raw material is the heart of our business to a manufacturing scale wooden massive, so we pay attention there.
However, to meet the demand and the current trend, if you wish for certain achievements in the « rough sawmill » style, part of the sapwood can be included in your achievements.
