Larch Sawn Timber & Decking

European Larch sawn timber represents the gold standard for exterior-grade wood products, combining natural durability class 3-4 with distinctive aesthetic character that improves with age. Unlike pressure-treated softwoods that rely on chemical preservatives, Larch's high resin content provides inherent protection against rot, fungal decay, and insect attack, making it the environmentally superior choice for decking, cladding, and exterior joinery. This natural durability, combined with excellent dimensional stability and workability, has made Larch the preferred species for discerning architects and builders across Europe for centuries.

Our Larch sawn timber is sourced exclusively from sustainably managed Alpine and Central European forests, where slow growth in harsh mountain climates produces dense, resin-rich heartwood with superior performance characteristics. Each log is carefully selected for quality, then precision-milled on modern sawmill equipment to exact dimensional tolerances. We offer comprehensive product ranges including smooth and grooved decking boards, tongue-and-groove cladding profiles, planed flooring, and squared structural timbers (kantówki), all available in lengths up to 5 meters. Material is supplied kiln-dried to optimal moisture content (typically 15-18% for exterior applications, 12-14% for interior) or air-dried for traditional construction methods.

Larch sawn timber excels across diverse applications from residential decking and facade cladding to commercial flooring and structural framing. The wood's moderate density (550-590 kg/m³) provides excellent strength-to-weight ratio while remaining workable with standard tools. The distinctive reddish-brown heartwood with pronounced grain pattern creates visual warmth in both contemporary and traditional designs. When left untreated, Larch naturally weathers to an attractive silver-grey patina highly valued in modern architecture. For projects requiring color retention, the wood accepts oils, stains, and finishes exceptionally well. Our technical team provides species-specific installation guidelines, finishing recommendations, and maintenance protocols to ensure optimal long-term performance for your specific application.
