Here are the main features of larch wood:
- Natural durability: the heartwood is fairly resistant to insects and fungi, although the sapwood is less durable.
- High density: semi-hard wood, stable and not prone to deformation — ideal for both exterior (cladding, structures) and interior use.
- Resistant to biological threats: offers good protection against moisture, insects, and mold without chemical treatment.
- Distinctive appearance: honey or reddish-brown when new, it weathers into a beautiful silvery-grey patina over time.
Larch is suitable for a wide range of uses — from carpentry and interior design to cladding and decking — thanks to its natural toughness and long-lasting visual appeal. The price depends on the wood’s quality, thickness, and dimensions.
