  • The density is relatively high, so it is difficult to deal with dehydration, if dehydration is not handled well, the furniture is easy to deform.
  • Red oak texture is relatively hard, not suitable for the production of some fine furniture carving process, processing is more difficult.
Ash Wood
North American ash is a very balanced wood, when the home decoration style is not unified, or there is no clear decoration style, then ash is a relatively safe choice.
  • The hardness is very high, so the furniture made is very strong and durable.

  • Beautiful wood grain, light color, with a natural sense of beauty.
  • It has good corrosion resistance and is not easy to be damaged by insects and molds.
  • High density, heavy weight, not easy to move.
  • The hardness is high, the processing is difficult, and professional technology and equipment are needed.
  • Need regular maintenance, otherwise it is easy to crack, deformation and other problems.
Carbonized Wood
Carbonized wood is not a specific type of wood, but a specially treated type of wood. It is the pyrolysis of wood at high temperatures, so that the organic matter in the wood is decomposed into inorganic substances such as carbon and water, thus forming a black, with high strength and anti-corrosion properties of the new material. Carbonized wood can be made from a variety of woods.
  • Carbonized wood surface retains the original natural texture/crack of solid wood, natural and simple, strong decorative effect, high plasticity, can be used for a variety of soft decoration.
  • Can inhibit the growth of fungi, insect ants, natural environmental protection.
  • Strong stability, not easy to deform water absorption cracking.
