Spruce Lumber

Pound for pound, fiber for fiber, Spruce lumber has the highest weight to strength ratio making it an attractive solution for airplane building, boat construction and for interior and exterior construction work.

Acoustic Properties

Spruce lumber is a relatively soft, light wood with a uniform texture and straight grain. Its composition is ideal for basic construction and specialized applications. Old growth Spruce has been found to possess exceptional acoustic properties and is used in the construction of pianos, guitars, violins and other musical instruments where acoustical properties are an integral part of engineering.

Framing and Construction

Strait grain means strength and resiliency. Spruce lumber presents a straight grain that is largely attributed to slow and consistent growth patterns. As a result it is also used effectively for structural applications. Tight knit fibers give it the ability to stand up to the elements and present well as an outdoor siding or on decks and balconies.

Airplane and Boat Building

Realizing the significance of a light wood possessing the kind of durability that Sprucewood does, innovative engineers successfully used it build airplane panels and fixtures in the production rush both before and during World War II. Its buoyant properties and lightness made it attractive to boat builders for constructing hulls, oars, ladders and other components. Today Spruce lumber is widely used in boat-building and hobby aircraft industries.
