Is Cherry Wood Strong?

Yes, cherry wood is very strong and known for its exceptional mechanical strength. This European hardwood has a high density of around 630 kg/m³, providing excellent durability.

Cherry wood features outstanding technical properties:

  • Bending strength: higher than many commonly used species
  • High hardness: resists shocks and daily wear
  • Dimensional stability: minimal variation with humidity
  • Longevity: maintains mechanical properties over time

This natural strength makes cherry wood an ideal choice for custom interior design projects: countertops, shelves, stair treads, and other bespoke furniture. Its beautiful pink to light brown hue combines with its sturdiness to create long-lasting, elegant interiors.

Cherry is particularly suitable for projects requiring high mechanical resistance with a warm, refined look.
