The material of solid wood stairs is abundant and diverse, so it is necessary to pay attention to selection when purchasing.

Which type of wood is more suitable for solid wood stair material? The materials used in the current solid wood stair market are varied. Mid-to-high-end stair brands generally use valuable woods such as oak, beech, rosewood, huanghuali, and ash; while small stair enterprises with family workshop-style mostly use ordinary woods such as rubber wood and Lauan wood. We will make a comparison of the advantages and disadvantages of these woods.

Oak: Oak belongs to precious hardwood and is produced in Europe. Characteristics of the wood: long growth cycle, high density, and hardness, often used in high-end furniture, expensive price.

Rubber wood: Rubber wood is usually produced in tropical areas, and tropical plants generally have a shorter growth cycle, insufficient density and hardness, so they are easily deformed by humidity and temperature. The reason why many merchants use rubber wood as stair material is that rubber wood has a short growth period and low cost. As we all know, rubber wood is used for collecting rubber, and after the rubber is continuously extracted, the wood quality will be greatly affected.

Ash: The characteristic of ash is large wood eyes, and it is also easily affected by environmental climate.

Huanghuali: Huanghuali is also produced in the tropics, with large wood eyes, insufficient hardness and density, and easily affected by climate and environment. High-end solid wood stairs emphasize the unity of the whole and details, and the surface of the stair tread should be smooth and delicate, avoiding black wood eyes. Therefore, Huanghuali is generally not suitable as a stair material for treads.

Beech: Beech is native to Europe and is more common in places like Germany. The characteristics of beech are long growth cycle, high density, good hardness, not easily deformed by environmental influences, not prone to wood knots, and delicate panel texture. Therefore, beech is an ideal material for solid wood stairs.

Shengshi Huangchao Stairs kindly reminds you: expensive ones are not necessarily good, the one suitable for yourself is the right choice. Stairs occupy an important position in interior decoration. The material, style, and color of the stairs must be unified with the decoration style to achieve the ideal effect, which is the best.
