Wood:

• Pine wood. Softwood timber is a natural, soft and easy-to-work wood obtained from coniferous trees such as pine, spruce, or fir. Compared to hardwoods, softwood has a lower density, lighter weight, and a more uniform texture, making it easy to cut, plane, and glue. It is widely used in construction, furniture production, flooring, cladding, and small architectural elements like benches, tables, and playground structures. Pine wood offers flexibility and ease of machining, while spruce tends to be lighter in color and takes paint well. With proper treatment and impregnation, softwood can withstand outdoor exposure, making it a popular choice for various projects.
• Okoume is a lightweight and durable tropical wood originating from African regions. It features a uniform, fine texture, a light pink to yellowish-brown color, and minimal knotting, giving it a modern and aesthetic appearance. Due to its good stability, flexibility, and low weight, Okoume is widely used in the production of street and urban furniture such as benches, tables, playground equipment, as well as yacht decks and shipbuilding. It is also commonly used for high-quality plywood, furniture, facades, and outdoor equipment. Okoume is easy to process and well suited for milling, gluing, and painting, making it highly valued by architects, designers, and manufacturers.
