Where it Grows
|
Our Cherry hardwood
trees grow in
professionally
managed,
environmentally sustainable
timberlands in
the Pennsylvania area. This region has gained global recognition
for producing stock with beautiful red hues
and exceptional
workability.
Our modern
manufacturing facilities are conveniently |
 |
located near prime Cherry
timberlands, interstate superhighways, rail networks and some
of the busiest seaports
in the world—all of which allow us to offer premium products at
competitive prices.
Relative
Working & Physical Properties †
|
Cherry has a medium density and
good wood bending properties. It dries quickly and exhibits
large shrinkage.
The real value of Cherry lies in its
attractive color and excellent wood working properties.
Cherry machines
easily, nails and glues rather well and produces
a truly outstanding finish when stained or polished.
Common Uses
†
Furniture and
cabinet making, high class joinery, |
|
mouldings, paneling, flooring,
doors, boat interiors, musical instruments,
turning and carving.
