Key Attributes:

Exceptional Material: Our focus is on the exceptional quality of larch wood. Alpine larch stands out as the heaviest, hardest, and most durable softwood, ensuring unparalleled resistance. Sourced from the pristine Styrian mountains, our Alpine larch boasts an average lifespan of 150 years, surpassing its lowland counterparts found in UK, France, Germany or the Czech Republic.

Unmatched Durability: Flourishing at altitudes of 1,000 meters above sea level, our Styrian mountain larch exhibits remarkable weather resistance, owing to its slow growth and high resin content. Its inherent stability makes it an ideal choice for outdoor applications, eliminating the need for chemical treatments and offering an excellent price-performance ratio.

Distinctive Appearance: The beautiful reddish-brown colour of our larch guarantees a unique look and striking texture. Left untreated, a larch facade develops a fine, silver-gray patina over the years, adding character and charm to any setting.

Craftsmanship Excellence: As advocates for high-quality wood construction, we produce individually and beautifully designed pieces while respecting wood as a natural resource. Our commitment to customer satisfaction extends to both business-to-business and business-to-customer relationships.

Cultural Significance: Larch wood holds a rich cultural history spanning centuries. From its vibrant foliage in spring to its warm hues in autumn, larches have adorned landscapes with their friendly character. Used for centuries in higher regions as shelter against harsh weather, larch wood boasts legendary fire resistance and remains an integral part of mountainous regions.

Technical Specifications:

Timber Characteristics: Alpine larch features a compact heartwood ranging from light-brown to intensely red-brown, with a distinctive contrast between early and late wood. Its fine resin canals, primarily present in late wood, contribute to its exceptional strength properties.
