Jun 21, 2022

There are five main materials: Radiata Pine, Fir,Laminated Veneer Lumber, Medium Density Fibreboard,Poplar

Radiata Pine

Radiata Pine: Radiata Pine wood is of medium density, less scar, less grease, uniform structure, average shrinkage efficiency, strong stability and good nail holding force. The density is 500-520kgs/m3.


Fir

FirThe density of Fir is lower than that of Radiata Pine. It has many characteristics, such as scarring, grease, moderate hardness, straight texture, resistance to decay and turbidity, and no insects. The density is 450-480kgs/m3


Laminated Veneer Lumber

LVL--Laminated Veneer LumberHigh density, good toughness, not easy to deform. The density is 680-720kgs/m3.


MDF

MDF--Medium Density Fibreboard: High density, hard material, low cost and easy processing. The density is 680-720kgs/m3.


Poplar

Poplar: Less scab, soft wood, low density 450kgs/m3.
