The characteristics of Siberian Larch wood
Durable wood
- Durability class 1 to 2, resulting in a lifespan of 20–25 years without treatment.
Hardness and weight
Hardness: Fairly hard.
Weight: For a softwood species, larch is relatively heavy.
Sleek appearance
A very attractive wood species for rough-sawn applications due to its beautiful softwood grain structure.

Treatment
