V011 – PADUK VENEER

Paradoxically, red oak is sought after for use as front veneer in the furniture and door sector, as it is similar in color to white oak, i.e. light. Unlike white oak, it cannot be used as barrel wood because the pores are not clogged.

It is used in the craft of carvers and sculptors. It is also very important as veneer and solid wood and in the construction of musical instruments (e.g. wind, plucked, and string instruments). In the veneer sector, Ebony is only used in the high-quality project, ship, and aircraft interior fittings due to its extravagant beauty and high price. Since each trunk has a different pattern, the products made with them are extremely individual and unique.

High-quality interior fittings and series furniture, paneling, and parquet. Also well suited for musical instruments. Despite its hardness, the wood is relatively easy to work with. However, the use of carbide-tipped tools is recommended.

In its simple form – cf. Eucalyptus Pommele, Eucalyptus Riegel – it is rarely used as a front veneer, mostly as a side and interior veneer, because the wood is not very expressive. In addition to veneer production, eucalyptus is used for ship and vehicle construction, for railway sleepers, and as plantation wood, mainly for paper production.
