  • ✓ Smooth finish
  • ✓ Sustainable sourcing

Pine

Affordable and versatile softwood with natural knots. Ideal for frames and hidden structural components.

  • ✓ Cost-effective
  • ✓ Lightweight
  • ✓ Easy to work with

Spruce

Strong, straight-grained wood with consistent texture. Excellent for load-bearing elements and modular joints.

  • ✓ High strength
  • ✓ Uniform appearance

Eco-Friendly Engineered Boards

We use engineered boards made from recycled wood fibers and sustainable forestry practices. These materials offer superior stability and reduce waste.

Plywood

Multi-layered wood sheets with cross-grain construction for enhanced strength and resistance to warping.

MDF

Medium-density fiberboard made from recycled wood fibers, providing smooth surfaces for finishing.

Low-VOC Finishes

All finishes are water-based and contain minimal volatile organic compounds, ensuring healthy indoor air quality.

Natural Oil Finishes

Linseed and tung oils that enhance wood grain while protecting the surface naturally.

Water-Based Varnishes

Durable protective coatings that emit minimal odors and dry quickly.
