Pine/Ocoumé - Characteristics
Type: Combination of softwood and hardwood
Family: Pinaceae and Burseraceae
Genus, species: Pinus sylvestris and Aucoumea klaineana
Origin: Europe and North-Asia, West-Africa
Colour: A combination of yellow and brown Pine and vibrant red and brown Ocoumé
Characteristics: A distinct and lively combination of two clearly different wood types
Structure: Plexwood - Pine/Ocoumé is composed of end grain wood and wood with the grain, glued cross-wise
Sustainability: From sustainably managed production forests, the commercial harvesting cutting cycle for pine is 20 - 25 and for ocoumé this is 30 - 40 years
Strength and dimension stability: Because of the use of cross-glued veneers the surface of the wood is generally stronger than solid wood of the same dimension and weight, and moreover, the dimension stability is also higher
Hardness: Janka hardness scale rating for Plexwood - Pine/Ocoumé is 3224 N (measured by the SHR RC 2115, according to ISO 3350, 1975 08 01)
Reference samples: Wood, in general, is a natural product, the structure, composition, and colour nuances of Plexwood - Pine/Ocoumé can differ from the actual production, this also applies to any finish, moreover, the exact structure, texture, and colour balance can differ from the current production
Production samples: It is possible to order a production sample; a production sample is a sample of the current production stock
