The most recommended species for staircases are:
- Oak: maximum durability, refined grain, ideal for high-traffic areas
- Beech: hard wood, smooth surface, excellent value for money
- Ash: impact-resistant, distinctive grain, suited to modern styles
- Maple: very hard surface, light color, perfect for bright interiors
For your custom stair treads, choose hardwood species with high density. The thickness, dimensions, and selected finish directly influence the durability and final cost of your staircase project.
