Is beech suitable for kitchen countertops?

Beech wood is an excellent choice for kitchen countertops. This hardwood is dense and offers outstanding resistance to impact and daily wear. Its homogeneous structure and tight grain make it a durable and stable material.

Advantages of beech for the kitchen:

  • High mechanical strength
  • Smooth and hygienic surface
  • Easy maintenance with occasional sanding
  • Warm natural appearance with light tones
  • Excellent value for money

However, beech requires a suitable treatment for the humidity of the kitchen. A finishing coat of oil or specific varnish effectively protects the wood from water splashes and food stains.
