The more we understand the unique characteristics of wood and its source, the better we can understand how much warmth and beauty it can bring into our everyday lives. Each piece of wooden furniture is a unique masterpiece of design and texture as every piece of wood has a unique grain pattern. There are several types of wood and it will take a lot of passion and patience to discover all the types of woods in the world.
Para simplificar, a classificação da madeira geralmente é dividida em dois grupos;Madeiraemadeira maciça.
Madeiraé comumente produzido por árvores cones-bearing enquanto硬木É made de madeira de árvores frutíferas.
"Como eu sei se é madeira maciça?
MADEIRA DE CONIFERES由针叶树或常绿树制成。常绿树每年不会像硬木那样失去叶子，因为针叶树有针状的叶子而不是叶子。针叶树生长迅速，成熟需要20到30年。任何来自针叶树的木材都是开放的纹理。开放纹理意味着它不如硬木耐用。一些软木树种被用于造纸生产。通常，纸是由松木制成的，这是一种软木。在家具生产中，有许多类型的软木被使用，包括松木。
"Como eu sei se é Hardwood?”
MADERA SÓBREis mainly produced from low growing trees. Hardwood timber is close-grained, therefore is best suited to make furniture. Close-grained wood is known to be strong and does not easily split. Hardwood trees can also take up to 100 years to fully mature. It’s no wonder the price of hardwood timber in the market is expensive! As we can see, there are furniture industries that use hardwood as their base. In KIAN, we commonly use hard wood to make our furniture i.e ash, beech, oak, balau, rubberwood and nyatoh. In fact, KIAN first began manufacturing tabletops using rubberwood. Rubberwood is known as an environmentally friendly and inexpensive choice of wood as it makes use of rubber trees that have already served its useful function of producing latex.
