Elm – a European hardwood species – has a lively, pronounced grain. The heartwood turns a reddish brown, while the sapwood is more of a yellowish white. These warm, varied colour nuances create the characteristic, 'wild' appearance of the wood. Elm wood has a strong to medium hardness and combines a striking appearance with durability – ideal for applications where the wood can remain visible.
Elm wood is a species for connoisseurs. That wild flame grain and warm colour make it one of the most characterful materials we have in stock.
Thanks to its warm colour, elm wood pairs beautifully with steel or black accents. It also comes into its own combined with our oak beams, for example as visible roof boards. Finishing can be done with oil or lacquer, depending on the desired look and protection.
Elm wood comes into its own in projects where the wood is visible and defining. Get inspired by our projects and discover how this distinctive material adds atmosphere and character.
