Siberian Pine (Cedar) |
Siberian Pine (also known as Siberian Cedar) is creamy yellow with a pink 
link wood, a good texture, light, and very well processed. However, by characteristics of strength it cannot be compared to Siberian larch and regular pine. Round logs, sawn timber, firewood, posts, mine supports, lighter building constructions , boats, barrels, cladding, boxes, containers, toys, musical instruments, furniture, veneer, wood wool etc can be made from Siberian Pine.
Siberian Pine is also very durable and heat resistant building material, about 2 times more durable than spruce or regular pine. 45 cm Siberian Pine wall can be compared to 225 cm brick wall!
Wellmax Baltic produces lumber obtained from logs with a diameter about 1m, which is cut from 400 years old and 30 m long log. Our material comes directly from Siberia, the region of Irkutsk, where have always been the best growing conditions for quality Siberian Pine tree.
