WOOD TYPE
A WELL-CONSIDERED CHOICE
- Spruce / Norway spruce / epicea
Originates from Finland and, by extension, Scandinavia. As there are fewer hours of sunshine in Finland, the wood grows more slowly and is of better quality. The trees are also slightly further apart, which means fewer knots and defects. Considering everything is sight-quality, this is necessary for Cubetto.
- Treatment of the wood
The wood is technically dried to 12%. In that drying process, it is exposed to a temperature of +60C° for x number of hours, and everything possible in the wood is dead. The custom-built construction kit is then finished with a protective layer of stain, which protects the product when built and also has some colour pigment that slows the yellowing of the wood on the inside of the construction.
