OVERVIEW
Products -> Species -> Douglas Fir ->

Douglas Fir has a long-standing reputation for its distinctive natural attributes, including strength, durability and beauty. WFP’s Douglas Fir is particularly renowned for its quality and range of grades and characteristics, including some that is exceptionally straight- and fine-grained.

Overall, Douglas Fir is valued for its durability, high strength-to-weight ratio, dimensional stability and hardness. Its natural preservatives repel water and resist decay, plus its dense distinctive grain, warm rich colour and fine texture make it a natural beauty.

Because WFP’s Douglas Fir seasons well, dries evenly and remains straight and true with minimum checking or distortion, its workability is superb. It also accepts a variety of stains and finishes, holds nails and screws securely, and accepts adhesives well. All told, these attributes make Western Forest Products’ Douglas Fir ideal for a wide variety of uses, from decorative doors and windows to a wide range of commercial and industrial applications, including framing and structural timbers.
