Carpentry, joinery (interior)
Carpentry and interior joinery timber is used for a wide range of internal building elements, including doors, skirting boards, architraves, staircases, flooring, panelling, shelving, cabinetry and fitted furniture. It is also widely used in both domestic and commercial interiors where a balance of functionality, precision detailing and aesthetic finish is required, from modern fitted joinery to traditional handcrafted interiors.
This application benefits from timber that is stable, easy to machine and capable of taking a high-quality finish, whether painted, stained or left natural. Species such as European Oak and American White Oak are highly valued for their strength, attractive grain and long-term stability, making them ideal for staircases, flooring and bespoke joinery. Ash (European and American) offers excellent workability and flexibility, particularly suited to bent components and clean-lined contemporary interiors, while American Black Walnut is prized for its rich colour and fine texture in high-end furniture and decorative joinery. Beech and Maple are also commonly used where a smooth, consistent surface and precision machining are essential, especially in cabinetry and fitted interior work.
