Hardwood Mouldings Add That Little Something Extra

The warmth and texture of real hardwood mouldings are rare qualities unmatched by any of today's synthetic materials. They add that little something extra, difficult to define but immediately apparent. All hardwoods have a longevity of their own, some species being hundreds of years old, such oak and mahogany.

Many of the hardwood species lend themselves naturally to the production of hardwood mouldings due to the fine grain and durability and actually improve with age. Hardwood, like any other timber can easily be machined to many different profiles using highly sophisticated wood moulding machines. The beauty of these profiles or hardwood mouldings, as they are known is further enhanced by the application of the relevant vanishes and sealer to bring out their true colours. In fact there are many hardwood products available today such as:

• Cill Sections
• Window Sections
• Window Boards
• Skirtings and Architraves
• Door Framing, Frame Linings and Casings
• Decorative Hardwood Mouldings and Claddings

There are also many different species of hardwoods available, such as oak, mahogany, meranti, iroko, beech, cherry, ash, poplar, maple, basswood and ramin. However, you should always be responsible in your choice of timber, try to use hardwood and hardwood mouldings alike from a managed sustainable source.
